Steam id - how to find out?
Let us consider the question posed. As it turned out, there are 2 methods to find out the steam id:
- The first way is simple and fast, you canUse it when you have access to an online game. Then, for example, we go to the licensed server of some game (Counter-Strike 1.6 / Source, or Half-Life 2, or something else). Open the console and register "status", then copy from the line with your nickname your personal Steam id. It was a simple and well-known way to learn steam id.
- The second method will take more time and energy. Go to the start menu and select the "execute" option, then write "regedit.exe" in the line, then select "HKEY_CURRENT_USER", then select the "Software" tab, then "Valve", then "Steam" and after this "Users". There should be a menu containing steam_id of absolutely all accounts that you've ever visited. In order to learn your real steam_id, you need to take any value, and divide it by 2.
Consider the second method with an example: 16663728 divide by 2 we get 8331864, now two options are possible. The first option is if the number is divided into two (without a remainder), then your steam_id starts with STEAM_0: 0, that is, 12928 is divisible without a remainder by 2, resulting in 6464, respectively, steam_id = STEAM_0: 0: 6464. Variant two - the number is divided into two and the remainder is present, this means steam_id starts with STEAM_0: 1, we get 20307923 divide by 2, equal to 10153961.5 (the remaining five). As a result, our steam_id is STEAM_0: 1: 10153961.
