hl2 wont launch

So today I decided to replay Half Life 2 but it doesn't launch at all. When I click play or double click it on my desktop it simply brings up a window that says "preparing to launch half life 2" and then dissapears without the game ever opening. Anyone know why this is happening?

Try launching as administrator (go to (where your steam games are)/common/half life 2/hl2.exe and try launching it as admin, once again).

If that doesn't work, verify cache.

What's your OS though?

Verifying the cache seemed to fix it, thanks Tanner!

No probs.

Most of the time when Steam games don't launch after you download it, it's because something didn't download right.
