I purchased games but Steam won't let me install them?

[liwfie]

I bought Fallout 4 a while ago and, instead of having the option to install, all it shows me is when i purchased the game ( https://i.imgur.com/iiY98lJ.png ). Same thing happens with Life is Strange Before The Storm. My friend went into my steam account on his PC and he has the option to download it there so I'm not sure what my problem could be.

These games (and Yakuza 0 that's on Pre-Load right now) are the only games in my library that I'm having a problem with. If anyone knows what's going on and how I can fix it it's greatly appreciated. Thanks !

basic answer but have you tried restrting your system or doing a clean steam reinstall?

I did it, it's apparently something to do with it being a 64bit game but my machine is 64bit so I don't know what's going on

Are you on a Mac or are you running a 32-bit Windows?

Are you using a skin? My library page looks very different from yours (I'm not using the beta client.)

It looks like your skin is cutting off the box. Just above purchase date should be how many hours you played and directly left of that the is the Install button.

Also the Fallout symbol is next to the name Fallout 4.

Fallout 4's requirements include a 64 bit system.

MINIMUM:
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit OS required)

You MUST have 64 bit, in order to play the game on the system. A 32 bit system *cannot physically play it*.

Have you double checked to see if you didn't install the 32bit varient of your is by mistake?

What os are you running?

Also these games appear to be in a category other than Games. Is it perhaps something like shared games? I.e. you have family shared them from another account?
