Steam

Concept »

Steam is a digital distribution service owned by Valve. Originally created to distribute its own games, Steam has since expanded to become the de facto standard for digital distribution of PC games, and supports community features, downloadable content and achievements. Starting 2010, Steam now offers Mac games as well.

So guys, I recently got a new Pc, and when trying to log in to Steam, they said they sent me an email with a code to make sure the account belonged to me. The only problem is, the email adress I used to make my Steam account has been deleted. What do I do? I don't want to make a new Steam account because I will have to buy all my games again.

If you no longer have access to the contact email address associated with your Steam Account, please contact Steam Support.

What happened to your old PC? If you still have it, just log in to steam with it and change email information.

It's not just tied to a computer, when you do a fresh install of windows you have to go though the same thing.

@Bourbon_Warrior: But if he had previously logged in to steam with that old pc, he should be able to just log in with it.
