Removing Old back-up Codes?
I recently received an email that was not from me that a set of back up codes were generated. I was alarmed as this would be a threat to the security of my account. I quickly changed my password however those back-up codes are still in play. is there a way to remove a set of back-up codes to destroy the ability to log into my account without my steam guard?

It is confirmed that generating a new set of codes will remove the old set?

Yes. That is what generating new ones does.
