Wish list notifications filter, how to remove it?

Recently when I click on Wishlist to see what's on my wish list, it shows a filter that shows "Wishlist Notification Games" and I have to x out of that to see my entire wish list. How do I stop Steam from putting that filter automatically when I click on my Wish list wanting to see my entire wish list not just two games on my wish list that if I delete them, then Steam arbitrarily picks two others to show me instead of showing the entire wish list like it's always done in the past.

Thanks

I was able to fix it by going to Steam Options, selecting "In Game" and from there, selecting Delete Web Browser Data. It got rid of that filter that was always applied to my wishlist. Hope it helps you guys.

Mine is still the same. No notifications.. I did notice some wishlisted games were removed.
Maybe those expired.
Are they notifications for you that you need to know about those games.

No, they were just 2 random games on my wish list, then I deleted them and reopened the wish list screen and now it's empty unless I press the X to get rid of a filter (then I see my actual wish list) but I don't see anywhere that I can disable the function screenshot:

This has been annoying me too, I like to have mine set to price and no tags. It always adds the tag back and sets it to discount again if I leave and reenter the wishlist. I have tried resetting steam and that didn't fix it.

!!
That was it! I somehow kept overlooking that filter and just tried to fiddle with the options and whatnot, how did it even appear there

Been clearing my cache and trying everything to get my whole wishlist to show.
Thank you for this thread. And yeah, wtf, why is this happening?

What filter, where are the filters? I'm not seeing any filter that would seemingly make it do this behavior on the wishlist page.

Thanks.

Been having the same issue, not sure what's going on with it. Hopefully there's some kind of solution soon.

I've had this issue for like a week now, I even tried removing the game that was popping up under the filter but no dice

Glad to know this problem isn't specific. You can remove the games but it'll just default to that blank page. Tried opening a 'different' notification to see if it'd change. Nope!

This is bugging the hells outta me trying to view my wishlist when it keeps notifying me of these weird 'headliner' games that steam keeps reminding me on
