hi are there any easy solutions for this without scripting for each game? ideally just a setting?

 

whenever i close a game i am back in steam which means i actually need to go use my computer to get back in bigbox!

The only times I've seen this happen is when I launch the game, and it's the 1st time Steam has been launched (on that particular day), and Steam has an update.  Steam will do its update thing and then show the "On Sale" and 'Main' windows.  This happens in the background, so you don't see anything when the game [eventually] starts, and you play it.  It's when you exit the game you see those windows still lurking [on top of BigBox].

I've gotten in the habit of, before I start BigBox, if I know I'm going to be playing a Steam game, I'll

  1. Start Steam 1st. 
  2. Let it do its thing
  3. close/minimize Steam when it's done
  4. then start BigBox.
