Unable to start game - Steam error (Solved)

Do you have any antivirus notifications displayed on screen as this was happening? A few players have posted here with issues regarding AVG and Avast:

AVG Antivirus now detects boundless.exe as dangerous file

since the last patch/update i had AVG antivirus tell me that the boundless.exe file is dangerous. [boundlessexe] i have sended file reports to AVG to add to their database so it should be fine within the next couple of days. just posting this here so that anyone that has the same issue knows that this is being solved. the workaround for now is adding the exe to the safe list on your AVG antivirus by going to Menu–>settings–>General–>exceptions–>add exception [boundlessexeption]
