View hidden items in Points Shop?
I saw a friend had a background that I kinda liked, so I went to look for it in the steam points store. I went for a look and couldn't find it, then did a more refined search by searching for game.

All it says up the top is either "37 hidden" (general search) or "4 hidden" (showing no results, after searching by game).

How do I view these hidden items? I can view them with a single click in the store if I have things hidden by preference (which I still don't know how to control), but I have no idea how to immediately view these points shop items that are hidden, or view them at all.


EDIT: As I presumed, it's related to steam store preferences and after fiddling around with those (which I had previously set due to certain games on steam), it also hid certain items relating to those games on the points shop.
Temporarily changing my steam store preferences to view the points shop solves the issue.

Would be nice if they had a toggle or at least "why" it is hidden, so you can change the one setting.
I just enabled show all on preferences, whatever...

That did not solve my issue. More strangely even, it hides items of a game I like and own!

I've noticed a lot more games are being hidden under my preferences now than they were before; Skyrim and CS:GO are both hidden but all I have disabled is nudity and excessive gore.

No it will not, since those items are region locked, and hidden in certain countries no matter what. Thanks

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
