I was facing that same issue about a week ago, I tried everything but  it did not get fixed.
Just reinstall the game, it will be fixed.

It worked! the first one worked for me, try that @Burzum, and thanks @Frank  8)

Also, just remove the new Steam BETA I think it caused the problem since it's not official yet.

Cheers.

i have the same issue too.
so far i've tried deleting appmanifest, verifying game files, repairing library, disabling steam beta. changing pcs date, rebooting, running chkdsk.
nothing seemed to help.
i deleted 1.6 and when i try to download again it gives me same error (content still encrypted), cant even start download.

Well i had the same issue a few days ago, i just went to "gestionnaire de taches" (in french) and I restarted the cs1.6. And it launched directly, sorry idk how to explain it in english but I'll soon, promised :)
And i don't advice to uninstall the game then install it again. Bcs u might not be able to install it again. Tomorrow I'll explain what I did to make it working (It taked only 3 minutes..)

Yeah I had this also but to make cs working it needed also to relaunch steam..
