How do I remove games from recently played section?

[Timi]

I came across many profiles that have some hours on record and multiple games on the account but have an empty played section. I think it looks cool :P

Here is a screenshot of what I mean: http://prntscr.com/aeut9n

Edit: found the method. works well http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=612752835

Edit2: steam is trying to patch these methods, the one i posted above no longer works. I would advice you not to run any batch files you find online as they may be malicious. steam recently added more privacy settings so I would suggest using that to hide your games.

Some demos and tools don't appear in Recent Activity at all, but still take up one of the three slots. I can't specifically remember which ones those are, though. Maybe you can see them if you click on their Games list and see the Recently Played section there.

Why would people want to clear out their profiles? It seams to be a trend for some reason

Say you play a really embarrassing game and you don't want anyone to know.

How can a game be "embarrassing"? Why would you care what anybody thinks about what games you play?

My friend got me a game called 'Nekopara' I played it because I didn't know what it was, after I realized, I deleted it and wanted it hidden from my recently played tab.

play more games and it will bump it off the list.

For example i have 1k+ games, sometimes i want open my recently played games section and select one, but stupid steam interface scrolls down list to 6-8 month. I don't get why, but if they cant fix this let me clean this section tho

What I hate is that games you've never played or installed are added to the list, pushing the real ones off. This is the case when you activate a Steam key but don't install the game. It is still added to the list. This should be corrected.

WHA Abou your bech

I don't believe they can be removed manually. They might go away on their own if i'm not mistaken.

Just don't play any hentai games and you should be fine.

Easier to use the privacy feature (added loooong after this thread was created) to hide your "Games Details" from public view.
