Steam API keeps registrating new keys (Not sure if it fits in ,,Help and Tips")
Always every now and then my Steam API gets refreshed, even tho I got myself

Even tho I disabled it many times it just keeps getting back

1. New password
2. New Backup Codes
3. I deauthorized all other devices

And it just keeps refreshing, can anyone help me what to do?

Steps to take NOW:
1. Scan for malware https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Deauthorize all other devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
3. Change passwords from a clean computer
4. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
5. Revoke the API key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey (there should be nothing in the APIKEY)
