Subsystem would be Steam?

# I am inside a Session with ‘LobbyGameMode’, than I try to send a change of the ‘Extra Settings’ at the the same Game Mode with Get Session Settings, but it always go to ‘On Failure’.

Ok, while writing this I found out that in Standalone with Steam open it works, everything is ok everyone.

Steam doesn’t actually host a session unless you are in packaged or standalone, this is because in PIE and PIE in seperate window the EDITOR itself hosts a session outside of the session system for simulating network play.

Generally you want to run in standalone to test for steam stuff.
