How to Become INVISIBLE on STEAM & Hide From Friends (Best Method)
To become truly "invisible" on Steam, you want to use the "Invisible" status. This is the best method because it gives you the privacy of appearing offline to your friends while still allowing you to access all of Steam's online features.
Here is a step-by-step guide:
Using the Friends & Chat Window (Quickest Method)
Open the Steam client on your PC.
Click on "Friends & Chat" in the bottom-right corner of the client window. This will open your friends list in a new window.
In the friends list window, click the small dropdown arrow next to your profile name at the top.
From the menu that appears, select "Invisible".
Using the Top Menu Bar
Open the Steam client.
In the top menu bar, click on "Friends".
A dropdown menu will appear with your status options. Select "Invisible".
What the "Invisible" status does:
You appear offline to all of your friends. Your name will be greyed out on their friends list, and they will not be notified that you have come online.
It hides what game you are playing. Your friends will not be able to see that you are "In-Game" or what game you are currently playing.
You still have full functionality. You can still play multiplayer games, join voice chats, access the Steam Store, use the Community Marketplace, and send/receive chat messages.
