With the Steam install subscribed to the -beta development branch of the client, installing the Stable branch via Game Updater and running the arma3launcher.exe will run as it should, but the Dev sash is overlaid in the upper-left as it would be if running the Dev branch. {F27136}

Hello,
the branch ribbon type is based on current branch for Arma 3 on Steam, it doesn't take Game Updater magic into account.

@Fighting Power: Check my Steam Guide for details: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=524329966.
@wizard: Thanks for the quick response.
EDITED: Corrected link to point to the proper guide page and not my editing link.

Hello again,
I've added the option for Game Updater to override the displayed branch for each copy of the game.

@Fighting Power: I'm going to assume that your comment is directed to me and in particular to step 4 sub-step 3 of the ArmA 3 Tools: Game Updater section of my guide. Leaving the Steam Guard Code blank does not in any way turn off Steam Guard. The challenge code that Steam sends to verify the connection is properly entered into the SteamCMD CONSOLE window that verifies the Steam information and is only needed the first time you run SteamCMD on the PC. The code is retrieved from the e-mail that Steam will send to your accounts primary e-mail address.
Steam Guard remains in effect and protects all versions you choose to install. You should not disable Steam Guard for any reason or need to.
@wizard: TY again. Will test ASAP.
