Growing number of games in my Library that I have not chosen/added, and do not want.

So, I have this continually growing list of games in my Library that I did not choose/buy/select, or in any other way select. I also have absolutely no interest in them and don't want them in my Library.

First, how do I stop additional games from being added to my Library against my wishes?

Next, I understand I can't remove games I HAVE chosen from my Library, but is there a way to remove games from my Library that were placed there against my wishes?

You can hide them in your library or ask support to permanently remove it. What games are you talking about? If it is a F2P game or demo, you can go to your acount settings to remove them. Are you sure some didn't come as part of a bundle or something?

Only on Steam will people complain about free games

Use the "Hide from library" option when you categorize games

Only some of the games are free, and yet I have zero interest in them. And the fact of the matter is, I pay for the games I am interested in, which Steam makes money on. If I don't want games I didn't select cluttering up my library, that's my choice, not Steams. I've spent a hell of a lot of money on Steam games, they can damn well respect my wishes.

Can you name some of these games?

Free games on Steam are not automatically added to your library, as far as I know. Not unless you go and download them.

There are occasionally "free weekends" that add normally non-free games to your library so you can play them for free over a weekend, but they are relatively uncommon, and they go away automatically after the free weekend.

If free and/or f2p games are suddenly popping up in your library, and you're not the one downloading them, then you may have malware on your computer.

The library DOES NOT grow automatically.

The ONLY games that are added automatically are free weekends, but this is only for a few days. They are removed when the free weekend is over.

Yes, I can list them out. There are 22 of them.

Arsenal of Democracy
The Ball
Cities in Motion
Cities in Motion 2
Commander: Conquest of the Americas
Defenders of Ardania
Dungeonland
Dwarfs?
Europa Universalis III
Europa Universalis IV
A Game of Dwarves
Impire
Killing Floor
Knights of Pen and Paper +1
Lead and Gold - Gangs of the Wild West
Magicka
Magicka: Wizard Wars
March of the Eagles
Rising Storm Beta
Rising Storm/Red Orchestra 2 Multiplayer
Sengoku
Sword of the Stars II: Enhanced Edition

With the possible exception of the Rising Storm games (which sound familiar but don't look familiar), I have not selected any of these games for my Library. I was afraid my account had been hacked and I had paid for these games, but that is not the case either. I haven't paid for any of them. Some are F2P, others are not. I'm the only person that uses or has access to this computer or my Steam account, unless it has somehow been hacked.

https://store.steampowered.com/account/ will tell you how they were acquired, whether they were free (complimentary), a retail key activation, or bought through the steam store. f2p games should have the option of having their licenses removed

Been there, done that. Not a single game I listed above is listed under my accounts Licenses + Subscriptions or Store Transactions tabs. Not a single one of them.

But they are ALL in my library, though they are now all hidden.

Has anyone else ever logged into your computer with their steam account? Sometimes it will auto add other libraries to facilitate family sharing.

Ya, sounds like there is another user on that computer. Any installed games will appear in your Steam library even if they were from another account.

If you tried to run one of the games that you don't actually own then you would get a warning telling you that you can't play it wihtout buying it, and I think it suggests that you can have the other user share the game with you.

Not that I am aware of.

The only people that might have done that would be a local PC repair shop that I've been doing business with for years and am personal friends with everyone. But you bring up a good point and I'll ask them about it, because they have done some repairs this fall.
