I just bought some DLC for Train Simulator, but after completing the purchase I skipped to another page without starting the download.
Now the DLC shows up in my list of DLC as 'not installed' (in Dutch, so I don't know what the exact English wording is), even though 'install' is checked.
Unchecking and rechecking 'install' didn't do it either.
How do I get Steam to download and install it?

Right click on the game you're after to open properties, click on the 'Local Files' tab, click on 'Verify Integrity of Game Files' let it do its thing. Once complete if should say it's missing some files (your DLC) and it'll go off and download them.
I had this issue in the past. There is no guaranteed way to trigger the download. Sometimes it will even launch the game without downloading the DLC first. What mostly helps, is to quit Steam completely and then start it up again.
Sometimes also unchecking the 'install' check box and checking it again helps.
BadSnowflakeBadSnowflakeDLC will normally not download if you are running a Steam game already - especially if it uses Steam Cloud Save sync.
In my case I have a dual boot Win 10 and Linux Laptop and noticed that once the DLC downloaded on my Win 10, it will not download on my Linux.
The strange thing is that it was showing that the DLC was installed.
Right Clicking the game and choosing properties, under the DLC tab I unticked the Install checkbox, then ticked it again. This seemed to force installing the DLC.

Steam recently started downloading an update for Super Monday Night Combat. Remembering the fact that the game never ran properly for me, and that I was unable to ever find any fix, I impatiently paused the download and deleted all local files from my computer.
The problem is, Steam is still trying to download the update. I've already restarted Steam. Even tried to uninstall the game completely, but it's still trying to download this update! I'd rather avoid having to hunt down the specific files and remove them manually.
Is there any way I can force this download to stop?

In your library list, right click on the game you wish to cancel the download for and click 'Delete Local Content'. This will remove the data that has already been downloaded and remove the game from the download list.

Go to your library, right click on the game you're downloading and want to remove and select 'Delete local content'. That's all. You don't need to stop or restart Steam this way.
