There is no way to transfer games from one account to another.

Potentially if you could get back into the account you could family share it to your new account but otherwise you will have to rebuy the game.

When you bought a game on that account, you got an email. Simply open that email, it contains the account name. With the account name, you can recover the account.

i dont even remember my steam account name and my password from my old account to relog back in to family share it to the new one. i dont even remember the email i used to create th old steam account so there is no possibility to recover my old account or the game i think :(

Well, in that case, you've burnt the money you spent on that old Steam account.
Pro tip: Don't switch email accounts. And of you do, keep the old one and and set up redirection. I can still receive email on my old address from 20 years ago due to that.

This sucks, I had a similar problem, except I bought about $100 worth of games and the account was deleted, appparently.

You could always check steamunlocked, I decided I already spent the money once, I wasn't going to pay again.

Accounts don't get deleted, not without proof of ownership anyway. So if someone else was able to delete your account, I wonder how they got hold of your about 100$ worth of transactions. That's the real problem you have to solve here.
