How to delete a group

My greetings. I want to remove the group which I created and own still, is it possible just by one button? Or I should kick everyone from the group and then leave by myself?

Something went wrong while displaying this content. Refresh

How to: Removal of Steam Groups and It's Members

Steam groups cannot be deleted manually, nor can Steam groups be deleted upon request via Steam support. Like you said above, you would need to first remove it's current members and then leave yourself for it to be vacant. Groups are then later removed automatically after a period of inactivity after all users leave. This was set forth to avoid problems with accidental deletion by group owners.

Ive deleted a few thousand people from a streamers groups a few times, It actually goes way quicker than you would imagine, 777 you could have done in a few mins. Just dont wait for the page to refresh and make your way down each column.

I think its somewhere between 24 hours and a month. I forget
You can search for the group after to see if its still around, once its empty it should have a timer on it.
