Steam – nyway to stop a download on Steam

steam

Steam recently started downloading an update for Super Monday Night Combat. Remembering the fact that the game never ran properly for me, and that I was unable to ever find any fix, I impatiently paused the download and deleted all local files from my computer.

The problem is, Steam is still trying to download the update. I've already restarted Steam. Even tried to uninstall the game completely, but it's still trying to download this update! I'd rather avoid having to hunt down the specific files and remove them manually.

Is there any way I can force this download to stop?

Best Answer

In your library list, right click on the game you wish to cancel the download for and click 'Delete Local Content'. This will remove the data that has already been downloaded and remove the game from the download list.
