Can't Remove Some Games Off of My Wishlist. [SOLVED]
I have deleted almost everything off of my wishlist in an attempt to start over and keep it organized. The only problem is that some of the games on my wishlist appear to have been removed from the Steam store. This blocks me from removing them from my wishlist which is extremely frustrating. Please help me.

Solution: Delete items with the Steam phone app. It will automatically update it server-wide.

I can remove them, but if I refresh the page it comes right back. Some of them have been off steam for a while, like the Awesomenauts separate expansions

I deleted them off of my wishlist on my phone. It is a bit annoying but it works.

I think it's a good feature that they don't automatically get removed right away

Steam definitely has an archive of previous games it had on its platform, but it's your wishlist.

GUYS I HAVE THE HOLY GRAIL OF KNOWLEDGE. Simply add the game to your cart, then proceedto the shopping details, press the two mini arrows just above the price, and select "remove from wishlist". Thank me later

They won't thank you later because you're about a whole year late.

This tip doesn't work as the game doesn't show on wishlist but still add to the wishlist counter. But still better than your comment which is a waste of internet data no matter the date we look at it.

Here is the real tip, it even works for GHOST items (empty wishlist but wishlist counter not showing zero)

If you know the name of the ghost games (you can import your wishlist on barter.vg to find out the names) then you just need to inspect element on your browser while being on any steam page (preferably your wishlist page to be sure) and execute this snippet of JS replacing --> 'appid' : 0, <-- with the ID of the game you want to remove, even if it doesn't display on your wishlist (happened to me with awesomenauts expansions).

Once you know the name of the game you can find the ID using SteamDB.

Code to execute to be found below :

$J.post( g_strWishlistBaseURL + 'remove/', {
'appid' : 0,
'sessionid' : g_sessionID
});

Example 1 with a problematic DLC : Awesomenauts - Overdrive Expansion · AppID: 425540

$J.post( g_strWishlistBaseURL + 'remove/', {
'appid' : 425540,
'sessionid' : g_sessionID
});

Example 2 : Awesomenauts - Starstorm Expansion · AppID: 256500

$J.post( g_strWishlistBaseURL + 'remove/', {
'appid' : 256500,
'sessionid' : g_sessionID
});

Hit F5 to refresh, done.

You can thank me even various decades later, internet is done for that. ♥♥♥♥ old threads locking.

Thanks, Xolem, that worked!

However, after removing such a game from my wishlist I still cannot add it back to it:


https://store.steampowered.com/app/115300/

Am I the only one with this issue?

What if you don't know the name of the game?

Thank you, it worked! It were 3 games. Like the guy above me CoD MW3 (there are/were 2 kinds of MW3 in the shop or so), Total War Shogun 2 (they devided it into 2 games or deleted the gold edition, don't know) and one, which I would never remember again, Metal Gear Survive BETA. Not the full released game, the f*c*i*g beta ...

I can't believe that something that unimportant bugged me so much, but now is the wishlist 100% real.

@Maxxtro: Xolem wrote it, go to barter.vg. I found there my missing 3 games.
