That's a Steam error.

Steam Error code 51 usually is caused by the interference of an Internet security program.

I suggest you to check your Internet security programs and create an exclusion scan area for the game's installation folder and for the game main file exes.

If this fails, please also try the other suggestions offered in the link below:

Like I've said that's a Steam error with the game and usually it's caused by the interference of an anti-virus or a firewall....

Check this thread for example:

There's no straight answer to that, besides that some anti-virus have a very aggressive behavior when there are changes.

Please notice, that nobody else reported the issue. So the issue is related to your local system, most probably, again, the anti-virus.
