Unlinking Rockstar Social Club with Steam
HI,
I have linked steam with different social club account years ago and I don't remember the email and password to it now... Do you know what I can do to maybe unbound previous social club account which passes I forgot and link it to another one? Trying to search internet for any tips, but I can't find such an information.

Contact Rockstar support, that's their linking on its end.

If you don't remember your email and password, then that's it. You can't link your Steam account in multiple Social Club accounts.
When reinstalling the game, you may be given the option to sign in again. Not sure if it will help but it may be worth a shot.

OK, i found this:

For Steam Accounts

Please submit a support request to disconnect your Steam account from your Social Club account with the following information.

The nickname for the Social Club account you want unlinked
The Steam ID64 for the Steam account you want unlinked:
Sign in to Steam
Under View > Settings > Interface select 'Display Steam URL address bar when available'
Select OK
Under your Profile Name select Profile
Select Edit Profile in the top-right
Clear any Custom URL settings from your profile
Select Save Changes
Under your Profile Name and Select Profile again
Copy the URL displayed at the top of the screen
(e.g. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197960287930 )
The long number at the end of this URL is your SteamID
A screenshot showing your profile logged into Steam with your Steam Profile and SteamID clearly visible on the screen.


But how can I contact directly to steam tech support (i only see steam tech support which is basically a FAQ and can't contact with a human being)
rockstar tech support couldnt help me

You contact Rockstar support.

Again, the linking is done on their end. Not Steam.
Follow the guide you posted, collect the information and provide that to Rockstar Support.

Do what the support says, copy your Steam ID64 profile URL link and your Social Club nickname and provide that to the support.

Steam support can't do anything for 3rd-party DRM that requires accounts.

Ive been waiting for unlinking since May 2022 and im sure that soon my case will be solved by this great company. For real this is absurd - they are asking for some f*** ridiculous informations only becouse they dont want you to play the game u have bought.

Every single game company asks for an extreme amount of proof of ownership to make sure you are the correct owner of the account.

Epic Games, Ubisoft, EA, Battle.net and even Valve does this to ensure the original owner is actually the one requesting access to the account.

I have never had any problems with other companies, its my copy of the game, i bought it and i dont know why the F*** i cant play the game oO.
Their politics in this case is absurd, i wont buy any other product of Rockstar again.
GTA was also free one epic games, so helping me out here wont really matter for them, they just prefer to lose 1 customer instead.

How long does it take to solve my problem? It has been about 16 days since my case was sent to the relevant department, and there is no response until now.
cSg|mc-Hotsauce Jan 14, 2023 @ 7:30pm 
As long as it takes for them to respond.

I'm pretty sure that's what they mean by losing "entitlements".

I'm going through the same thing and it is pretty egregious considering a hacker effectively stole my property through their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Social-club launcher. If I gave a ♥♥♥♥ enough and could afford it I'd sue them.

Good luck explaining how Rockstar is at fault for getting your Steam account compromised.
Your Steam account wasn't hacked, it was hijacked.
