Hello everyone,

I would like to hide games that only support Windows, as I’ll never buy any of those games.

Is there a simple way to do that? I found a checkbox in my account settings but it doesn’t seem to have much effects.

Thank you very much and happy gaming

    Go to

    Store >> Menu >> Your store >> Preferences >> Platform Preferences >> deselect Windows

      I did that already, but keep getting ads for games like Icarus that don’t even support the Steam Deck via Proton

          Thanks for your advice.

          I didn’t manage to hide Windows only everywhere but I found a turnaround by using the “Category” tab.

          Not as efficient as I wanted it to be, but at least I got the information I want

            No problem!

            Well, at least that one works. Though gotta remind this: There are games in Linux category and they suppose to work as a native game however a handful of games don’t work at all due to their one time Linux port by another studio. Usually using Proton fix this issue but this is not something you want so take this as an advice and check the game on ProtonDB and see if the native version of the game you wanna buy works correctly. Also there are many cases of games that using Proton runs better than their native version.
