  • Hi.

  • I'm Max Dalton, and in this video I'm going to talk through how to change your Steam email

  • address.

  • There are a variety of reasons you may want to change the email address associated with

  • your Steam account.

  • Maybe the email address associated with your account was hacked.

  • Maybe your shutting that email account down.

  • Or, maybe you just don't check email in that account often.

  • Regardless of the reason, Steam makes it easy to change the email address associated with

  • your account, and the whole process can be done in a few minutes.

  • And now, the steps to change your Steam email address.

  • Step 1.

  • Launch the Steam app on your computer, and log in to your account if prompted.

  • Your Steam home screen opens.

  • Step 2.

  • Click the name of your Steam profile in the upper right corner of the screen.

  • A drop-down menu appears.

  • Step 3.

  • Click "Account Details."

  • Your account details screen appears.

  • Step 4.

  • Click "Change My Email Address" in the Contact Info part of the account details screen.

  • A Steam Support screen appears, asking if you want to initiate the process to change

  • the email address associated with your Steam account using a verification code sent to

  • the email address of the email account currently associated with your account.

  • If you no longer have access to that email account, you can choose that option, where

  • you'll be asked to supply the current password for your account before proceeding.

  • For the sake of this example, I'll have the verification code sent to my email account

  • by clicking "Email an account verification code."

  • A message stating that a verification code was sent to your current email account appears.

  • Step 5.

  • Check your email for the email from Steam to retrieve the verification code.

  • Enter the verification code in the field on the Steam Support screen prompting you for

  • the code, and then click "Continue."

  • The Change Email Address screen appears.

  • Step 6.

  • New Email Address field, and then click "Change Email."

  • A new field immediately appears beneath the field where you entered your new email address,

  • prompting you to enter the verification code that was sent to your new email address.

  • Retrieve the code from your email, enter it in that field, and then click "Confirm Email

  • Change."

  • You'll be returned to your Steam account details screen, where you can confirm that your email

  • is changed in the Contact Info section.
