It also depends what is meant by progress.

If the game has local saves, uninstalling it may leave those in place. I don't think cloud saves are removed, but I could be wrong. Things like achievements earned (and the game counting as started for average completion % purposes) are certainly not removed.

If war thunder is online then all your progress is saved online with their servers under your account name, if it's a single player game then most likely yes you'll lose all save data too.

All your stuff is saved on their servers or where they save that data. When if they go under is when you lose eveything.

You can pick right back where you were when.and if you download the game again and it's still running.

Also just curious, why you need to remove it from your library?

This function was removed. It tells you to restore the game.

Strange, I deleted the "vanilla" Control key I got from the jarate humble bundle it was in so I could use the complete edition of Control they had in a newer Humble Bundle. It was the only way to make it work.
This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
