Linked wrong youtube account to steam, now i cant change it
Even though it says that you can "Unlink" the account and "Add" Or "Change" Account it still does not allow you because every time i've clicked link a new account it links my old one back to steam no matter what, I've searched for the answer every where and steam it self is my last resort

Have a look at restarting your operating system - restarting Steam should do the trick.

Go to the acount is wrong and go to the settings.
To the connected apps delete steam.
Then go again to steam and try to connect the new acount.

i found that for step 1 part 2 you need to ALSO unlink yourself from any steam overlay gmail stuff, it worked for me.

GO steam settings,
at the last WEB BROWSER
and delete cache and cookies
