In this thread I will show you an easy, free, and legal way to add extra free games to your Steam Library.
(Note: This requires the use of another persons login information. Only do this with people you trust)
Steps:Step 1: Open up the Steam Client application on your computer
Step 2: With the application open, click on "
Steam" located in the very upper left hand corner of the screen.
Step 3: Navigate down to "
Settings"
Step 4: Click on "
Family"
At this point you should see something like this:You will see that you can share game library with up to five other users. Now here's the tricky part. In order for this to work, you MUST have the other persons login information that you wish to share your library with/get games from. Meaning from the picture above. I had to sign into IT3ABAGUFOFOOD's Steam account with his username and password.
(When you do this, Steam will not recognize the computer that is trying to login to the account. So, Steam will send an email verification code to the users current email address, to make sure that the user is actually supposed to be using the other persons account.)Step 5: After logging in successfully to your friend/family members steam account. click on the "
Steam" icon once again, in the top left hand corner.
Step 6: Navigate to Settings
Step 7: Navigate to Family
Step 8: (You should then see yourself in the box where IT3ABAGUFOFOOD is. If not, simply click on "
Authorize this computer" and mark sure the box has a "
Check Mark" in it.)
Step 9: Log out of friend/family members account and back into your own
Step 10: Scroll down through your "
My Games" list.
If you did it correctly, it should look like this:For some reason not every game the user has will be transferred, but most will.
