Can't Refund A Game Gifted To Me
Someone gifted me a game that i wasn't able to refund. He gifted me a game before that i couldn't play, so i did the usual refund process for gifts. This time however, i wasn't able to download it because i'm on a Mac, so i tried to refund it. Once i went to the page, all my games were there except the one that i couldn't download, so now i have no idea how to give him the money back. It's been about 3 days since he gifted it to me.

Do you guys have any solution to this issue?

If you two would read the op, you'd see that this is exactly the outcome they were hoping for.

The problem they encountered was that the name of the game, Forts, is rather generic so they were unable to get the Support page to provide it as an option in which to start the process, which was solved by using a link directly to its Support page:

It worked! I don't use steam that often, so thank you so much.

Sometimes the Support page has problems finding certain games with very generic titles.
