Steam: how to delete games completely from your library

Instead of just deleting games from your computer, you also have the option to remove them completely from your library on the gaming platform. However, this can only be done through Steam's support. Get an overview of how the deletion works.

Deleting games from your library: how Steam works

Steam is a platform for computer games, where you can buy popular games like GTA 5, The Witcher 3 or Fallout 4. Once purchased, games are saved in your Steam library and can be re-downloaded to your PC and played in the Steam client at any time.

These steps will remove games from your library on Steam

To not only uninstall your Steam games, but completely delete them from your game library, you will need the help of support. You can reach this either by opening Steam's help page in your browser and logging in, or via the Steam app on your PC.
  1. Using the Steam app, first click on "Help" there and then on "Steam Support".
  2. Now navigate to "Games, Software, etc." to view the list of all your most recently purchased games and select the game you want to permanently remove from your library.
  3. If the game you are looking for is not displayed there, use the search function to find the game this way.
  4. Highlight the game you want to delete and click "I want to permanently remove this game from my account".
  5. Finally confirm the displayed warning to have the game and all associated DLC and purchases deleted from your library by Steam.
