Games not appearing in store search
Hello, I think this is the first discussion post I ever made, sad it has to be about an issue. I just got a new pc and am trying to install some games that I have purchased. One of them is CSGO, which I bought before it became free to play. I understand that Source 1 had a leak, however Valve said the leak was from 2017 and has been fixed or something like that. CSGO isn't appearing in my library, nor are a lot of games I have purchased. Another thing is I searched for both CSGO and TF2 and neither are appearing in the search results. What do I do about this because I would like to have a better time installing some of the games I like to play that are already registered in my library.

in the game search results, the sidebar to the right has "ignore" options, one of them being to ignore games which you own.

Check that you are not filtering your library at all. If they are not installed, it could be you have the "show only ready to play games" filter button activated, small blue "play button" just above the search field in your library view.

Ok thanks, it's been a while since I used the store search, I'm not really used to the updated steam layout.

I found the games, there were no filters but for some reason it took a while for all of them to show up.
Thank you for your help.

Update: I turned off the hide ignored items option and still no tf2, I got CSGO and my other games just fine. Is there any reason why this is happening even with the hide ignored items option off?
