How to Remove Game from Recently Played Steam
If you’ve ever found yourself with a game you no longer want to show up in your recently played list on Steam, you’re not alone. Whether it’s due to privacy concerns, a change in interests, or simply a cluttered list, removing a game from the recently played section is a straightforward process. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to effectively remove a game from your recently played list on Steam.
Step 1: Access Your Library
The first step to removing a game from your recently played list is to access your Steam library. You can do this by clicking on the “Library” tab on the top menu of the Steam client. Once there, you’ll see a list of all the games you own.
Step 2: Locate the Game
Scroll through your library to find the game you want to remove from the recently played list. If you have a large library, you can use the search bar at the top to quickly locate the game by name.
Step 3: Right-Click and Select ‘Unpin from Recently Played’
Once you’ve found the game, right-click on it and select “Unpin from Recently Played.” This action will immediately remove the game from your recently played list without affecting your game library or any other settings.
Step 4: Confirm the Action
After selecting “Unpin from Recently Played,” you may be prompted to confirm the action. Click “Yes” to proceed, and the game will be removed from your recently played list.
Step 5: Verify the Change
To ensure the game has been successfully removed from your recently played list, go back to the “Library” tab and check the “Recently Played” section. The game should no longer be listed there.
Additional Tips
– If you want to remove multiple games from your recently played list at once, you can select multiple games by holding down the “Ctrl” key (or “Cmd” on a Mac) and then right-clicking to select “Unpin from Recently Played.”
– If you’re using the Steam mobile app, the process is similar. Open the app, go to your library, select the game, and tap the three dots in the upper right corner to access the option to unpin from recently played.
By following these simple steps, you can easily manage your recently played list on Steam and keep your gaming experience clean and organized.
