My shortcut for Clod was working fine earlier, now when I double click the shortcut only steam launches, if I double click it again Clod will open, never did this before, any ideas?

game id matches in properties , can't figure out what has caused this, seams to be steam related as both my steam games are doing it, could not find anything in steam settings. I don't get the preparing to launch popup at all, please help, thanks, Jay

Same here.
Workaround. Create a new Desktop shortcut to CLOD Launcher.exe.
Then Crank STEAM manually
Then click on your new CLOD Launcher.exe shortcut.
Reported directly to the Devs ... though I think its a STEAM bug.

Good thread. I noticed Steam doing an update today, but didn't fire up CoD. Thanks for the heads up & response! :)

Just had a STEAM system update. Original COD desktop shortcut now working again. Starts STEAM and then starts CLOD

changelog stated that this problem had been fixed, as it seems that other games were broken too
