Can't add friends in Steam

When using a browser, I can't add any friends because it gives me the error:

Error adding friend. Please try again.

I have Steam open in the background. I would add them in the client but the search function is broken, it can't find any people. I tried to find my friends using the search but it never finds anyone. So I can't add anybody right now and it's frustrating.

Have you put in money in your steam wallet and actually bought something? Or are you just using steam to play games like Dota 2, TF2..

To add friends you need to have steam "premuim" which requires you to buy a game.

Or you can try this method:

Block the person, unblock the person and then re-add the person.
