What format of SteamID are you trying to land up with? They can be represented in many ways.

Check out the Render function(s?) on our SteamID class.

I dont understand, can you explain me?
I'm trying to get SteamID64 and Nickname of the user

steamid is a ulong format and you have to convert that to string then you have to put it in a string type!
youre code should be like this
string SteamID = Convet.ToString(SteamUser.LoggedOnCallback.ClientSteamID.Render());

LoggedOnCallback is an event to be subscribed to. You can have a function that gets called when the event fires. You can find an example of how to use it here. There are other useful examples here. Good luck

Oh now i understand the event. But i only need get a SteamID64 and username not the credentials... i think is more simple but i can't find the way...

If you're trying to get the steamid from the username, then that's not possible (reference). You'll need to log in as the user whose steamid you want. Once they're logged in, the LoggedOnCallback gets fired, and in that function you can get the steamid (reference). You can also get the friends of the user and their shown names and steamids after logging in.

I think you dont understand me, im trying to get username and SteamID64 from client. For example, steam saves this on C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config\loginusers.vdf But i only want parse the steamid64 from there... Thanks for your replies

Use Gameloop Vdf to do that.

Oh, I don't know if SteamKit is capable of doing that. From my understanding SteamKit "emulates" the steam client. I don't think it has a way of reading the actual steam client's loginusers.vdf file. I could be mistaken, hopefully someone else here can help answer that.
