How to remove game licence from account?
Hi guys, I like to have a clean library and unfortunately Steam can not handle difference between a game and and a DLC... Some DLCs are beeing showed as games in the library, which you can not play because a soundtrack DLC isn't playable. There was a way in the account-settings to remove games or DLCs from your Steam account, but now i can't find any options here. Is there a way to remove stuff finally from the Steam account?

DLC are not games and will never show up as games in your library

hhmmm, yes, it did, game SickBrick, DLC SickBrick Soundtrack. The DLC was showed as a game in my library and in the profile. I wanted just to remove the DLC, but I had to remove the whole game... anyway, it was a 1$ game and it worked out to remove it, so my "problem" is solved.

Hi there.
What happens if you remove a game licence from Account page, I am not meaning permanently removing a game from Steam Support page.

And finally another question, how to re-claim a paid/purchased game into library after removing it from Steam Support page permanently?

Assuming you mean this page
https://store.steampowered.com/account/licenses/

If you remove the license, you no longer have a license. Since this method only works for F2P games, about the only meaningful change is that when you visit the store page it doesn't say you own the game/DLC.

And finally another question, how to re-claim a paid/purchased game into library after removing it from Steam Support page permanently?
Pretty much the same way you removed it.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
