Go here...

https://help.steampowered.com/en/

Search and click on game, choose "I want to permanently remove..."

And that is completely reversible if you change your mind.

They can see the achievemnts, but not the game in your library. They also don't have access to your purchase history.

you cannot hide the achievements. it does not matter if the game was removed, refunded, played on a free weekend, etc.

if you want to hide what you are playing, go to profile settings and hide all the games. they will no longer be able to see what you are playing nor the achievements.

You can't.

The only way to "hide" achievements is to set game details to private. But then, even your own achievements are not visible in the activity anymore.

I know this is a old topic, but does anyone know if you permanently delete a game will your friends still be able to see if you played it before and your hours played in it? I don't care about the achievements since theres a way to delete them.
