Almost 20 years ago, I've got a steam account already. Somehow, I've lost the account-name, but I still see it in the friend list of my brother.

I'm quite certain to still know the password, but I cannot remember the account-name. Any way of recovering it?

Go to the profile and look at the url, should be the very end of it.

Very early profiles don't always have this and only show the long steam ID.

Damn, that was my only idea. :(

Only the ID is shown.
