Is there anyway to delete/get rid of games on Steam?

[powlesY]

My list is so full of games i haven't played and won't ever play. I just wanna get rid of a few of them.

Nope.

You can create a "Favourites" category and not have the games you don't want be part of that list, therefore hidden in a respect, but you can't remove them from your library totally once a game has been activated.

You cant delete games from steam, you can uninstall which will leave them grayed out but apart from that then no.

Hmm. Sounds like i'll have to do that then. It's not even as if i play anything at the moment. I've just bought far too many cheap bundles leaving my list is too long and i've grown out of the "lol get my steam games count up" phase.

Just uninstall the ones you don't use then have it show installed games

Throw your computer out the window.

We've all been there

Yeah, we've all been there. I've started saving the emails/codes in a special folder/file rather than activate them on Steam straight away. Means I can give them away when I realise there's no way I'll get through them all.

Same goes for Steam sales themselves - buy all games on Steam as gifts and save them in my inventory, again so they are not "wasted".

First World Problems "I Have some many games I can't keep track on them all", I not sure why Valve hasn't added a ability to hide games.

 

[Fenris]

Just put the games you actually play in your favourites.

 

[Myshra]

Raise a ticket to steam saying you want them permanently deleted.

 

[MooMoo444]

Call CS and tell them you no longer want them. They probably would remove them if they havent been played for years.

Pretty obvious OP has purchased 'Leisure Suit Larry' and needs to find a way of hiding it

Suggest Gabe's baby Steam is overpriced, the lynch mob will do the rest.....

 

[Shamikebab]

Just click 'show installed' problem solved.

 

[kkelly]

Show installed is how I hide them too

 

[HangTime]

I just use categories e.g:

Completed - obvious
Multiplayer - I hardly ever play anything other than Quakeworld online so I've farmed these off to keep them away from the singleplayer games
Old / In Progress - this is a catchall for games I've started but put in the back burner with an idealistic view that I'll revisit them one day
Rubbish - mostly games that I felt were so bad that I won't go back to them, but also things like older games that have been superseded by newer version, or really crappy games I have no interest in even trying (typically came as part of a bundle)

Games I've played recently i.e. 'actively progressing' will automatically appear in the jump list so I don't bother doing anything with them.

 

[powlesY]

Don't know if i can be assed to make categories. I just uninstalled about 10 games and made it list only installed though.

LSL was legendary....just like Day of the Tentacle.

Just install and hide as said.
