Deleting a game from wishlist that is removed from steam
Sorry if this was already asked but is there a way/workaround to delete a game from my wishlist that's "hidden" in it? Since the new steam update I have 7 games on my wishlist that are actually missing - these are most probably games removed from steam.

I cannot remove them since I cannot get to their steam store page and are missing from my new wishlist.

The only "problem" is the number of my wishlisted games doesn't equate to the number of games actually on my wishlist. It's a minor bug but it's really anoying me right now.

I know / can find the games missing I only need a way to remove them from my wishlist.

Thanks for any help.

1. goto any app store page
2. open console
3. change the appid field below <APPID> = 440 or 570 whatever you want to remove.
var data = { sessionid: g_sessionID, action: 'remove', appid: <APPID> }; $J.post("http://store.steampowered.com/api/removefromwishlist", data, function() { window.location.reload(); });

Doesn't work. Says unknown token.

the <APPID> does not include the <> it was merely to emphasize that this is the place so an example would be in this field.

this is wrong: appid: <440>
this is right: appid: 440

anyways give it a go.

Thanks for your help. Ilooked around and found another way: https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/80xtcw/anyone_know_how_to_remove_games_from_steam/

Anyhow removing the missing games did nothing. The new steam wishlist is really messed up. After removing the 7 games missing from my wishlist and adding them back another 7 games randomly got removed.

Basilcy after adding a game (and sorting it) 7 games get hidden on my wishlist. These games are not removed from steam store so I have no idea what is causing this.

Tried several times your script but doesn't seem to work, any chance you could help me out? Page refreshes without errors in the console. When i resync my barter WL the removed DLCs are still there. Not sure what i'm doing wrong or maybe Steam has changed something.

open big picture mode and go to your wishlist. all games are there even the ones removed from steam. just remove them from here.

Thanks! This worked for me! The game had been entirely removed from Steam (not just delisted), and it still worked.
