I am trying to run a game that I bought on itch.io but I get no licenses error. Even if try to run it directly in desktop mode, steam just interrupts the game and displays no licenses error. Any ideas?

That doesn't happen automatically. It's actually very illegal for it to do that. The publisher bundled a steam lib that talks to Steam.
