Almost 20 years ago, I’ve got a steam account already. Somehow, I’ve lost the account-name, but I still see it in the friend list of my brother.

I’m quite certain to still know the password, but I cannot remember the account-name. Any way of recovering it?

    If you haven’t tried yet: paste your steamid on here https://steamdb.info/calculator/

    Maybe it shows your account name.

    Edit:

    Also: if you by any chance redeemed a game by using a old cdkey and you still have it you could try the account recovering system.

    I got my hacked account back this way.

      MVP for reacting on this old thread.

      I tried the calculator to no appeal. Sadly, as I’ve moved eight times (no exaggeration) since I’ve last used the account, I’ve thrown out all cds :-(

        Damn, it’s going to be tough.

        Have you tried https://www.steamidfinder.com/ ? I don’t think it would give more information than the calculator, but you can try.

        What if you try adding the saving as a new friend? Maybe it will give some more information?
