On Steam, you have two primary options for appearing "offline" to your friends, each with a different level of privacy. The best method depends on whether you still want to use Steam's social features while remaining hidden.

The "Invisible" Status (Best Method for Most Users)
This is the most common and effective way to appear offline while still retaining full functionality. When set to "Invisible," you will appear as "Offline" to your friends, but you can still access all online features of Steam.

How to set our status to Invisible:
Open the Steam client on your PC.
In the top menu bar, click on "Friends".
From the dropdown menu, select "Invisible".
Alternatively, you can use the Friends & Chat window:

Click "Friends & Chat" in the bottom-right corner of the Steam client.

Click the small dropdown arrow next to your profile name at the top of the chat window.

Select "Invisible" from the list of statuses.

What "Invisible" does:
You appear offline to all of your friends.
They will not see what gme you are playing.
You can still send and receive chat messages, browse the store, and use the community marketplace.

You can still play multiplayer games and join voice chats, as your internet connection is unaffected.

The "Offline" Status
This status is more restrictive. It signs you out of the Steam community completely, disabling many online features.

How to set your status to Offline:

Open the Steam client on your PC.
In the top menu bar, click on "Friends".
From the dropdown menu, select "Offline".
What "Offline" does:

It signs you out of Steam Friends & Chat. You cannot send or receive messages.

You will be unable to see which of your friends are online.
Online features like the store, community hubs, and multiplayer functionalities may be unavailable or limited.

This is typically used when you are playing a single-player game and want no distractions or when you have a limited internet connection.
