Thanks so much for this. I did a LISA the Painful run with no arms and no Joy to 100% it, it was miserable, and then the achievement bugged. I almost flipped my house over. This is a life saver.
"I almost flipped my house over" That is the perfect way to describe that feeling you get when your extremely frustrated at a game and you've done everything right but the game just screws you over. 10/10
Thank you! Some achievements were bugging out and not storing correctly for me, and other older games that have lost dedicated servers were now impossible to 100% regardless of how many hours you poured into the game.
For those wanting to remove achievements to clean up unwanted achievements on the profile showcase. You have to earn an achievement in any other game for it to update.
i need all the online zombie achievements in black ops 1 from back in the day is that SAM stuff really safe? bc these games have Anti Cheat and i dont want a VAC ban or something on my profile bc my account is like 14 years old and i got some expensive stuff on it like CS skins etc
This program is quite handy. I'm a bit of a completionist when it comes to gaming but sometimes I take a long break and when I come back I like to start fresh, achievements included. This helps me with that.
Always its a issue on Steam . I just checked out a game I wanted to clean up 2 achievements only to see that a friend had the 2 I need with only 3 hours of game play and 1 click of a mouse. I have 30 hours in the game it would take me upwards of 50 hours or more if I decided to get them.
I play a few games that use a third party launcher, and since I've played them outside of steam, ALL the easy achievements are unobtainable now. But I have almost ALL the hard achievements.. So my Steam says I've unlocked "Get to max rank on a weapon" However, the easy one "Get to rank 2 with a weapon" is locked. I hope I can use this, to add all the achievements I KNOW I should have. :/
Thank you very much! ❤🔥 I wanted to remove some achievements selectively so that I could get them again directly in the game during the stream. You are the only one who could correctly and quickly explain to me the required method 🔥🔥🔥
@@Googlegivemyoriginalnameback Yeah. I just double check that I do have the achievement by checking in game in the Options Carreer thingy then game progress. And if I have it there then I just give myself the achievement. But give 343 a chance, I'm happy they at least managed to Port these games over to PC. They'll fix the achievement sooner or later. For now. Just enjoy the game I guess. S.A.M. got your back too for those pesky bugged achievements. Lol.
I cannot agree with you more. I don't want to cheat with games I don't play. But then again for example I had 413 hours in Dirt Rally, and I made it to 168/170, those 2 remaining trophies needed early access and 7 friends, so phisicly impossible to archieve. This tool served me justice, because I worked hard for it. F1 games online trophies did the same. 49/50. So messed up...
This is legit, Thanks man. I needed this for my last achievement in "Mad Max" that required server access to complete and they took them offline 2 years ago.
@@tikkanurannisa2018 i wanna do it in black ops 1 and LFD2 bc in BO1 i need all the Zombie achievements but i dont have all the maps bc i played it back in the day and nowadays nobody playing for achievements in bo1 anymore and in LFD2 i need the present and 2 other things was lucky to get the good guy nick couple months ago, but im a little bit scared bc my acc has expensive stuff on it bc of CSGO, so if i keep all games closed and just unlock them in the programm nothing will happen?
Thanks ! With your help, I got myself an achievement from SCP Secret Laboratory that was glitching (the "Escape the pocket dimension" one). Such a nice video, and a nice software. :)
Great stuff, simple and understandable tutorial!! I can't wait to reset all achievements in old games I haven't played in ages and never finished!! (just to keep better track of what's left of the game pretty much, like TboI: Rebirth) Also this would be the perfect tool for stuff like resetting your Dark Souls achievements, for a fresh all achievement journey
@@LogiMess Nah, I just enjoy watching the achievement pop up, it's very satisfying to me. Maybe it's because of WoW, maybe it's because I used to play on the xbox 360 a lot or maybe it's just because I wanna 100% games I love, and getting this steam achievement feels pretty special ^
Playing Outward with a friend 50 hours In and found out the person joining their friend doesnt get achievements even tho Ive been there for everything lol.
I remember myself as a kid using this on CS:GO and unlocking all achievements To this day i felt so bad and dirty for doing that im happy i found a vid that helps me Thx
Same but with The Stanley Parable achievement that requires you to not play the game for 5 years. I have no idea why I unlocked it in the first place, but I always felt so bad, like I didn't deserve this achievement, so now I'll finally be able to do it legit lol!
this is very useful to complete a list of a achievements that otherwise would be impossible to get, like "and they'll tell two friends" and "cant we get beyond THUNDERDOME" on Borderlands GOTY
Thank you so much! I am playing only when making video or streaming and this time I suddenly obtained achievement by just playing a game. That was not fun because nobody saw how I obtained it. But with you advice I’ve just deleted achievement and this is great!
Thankyou so much, i grinded a game for ages only to find out that the last achievment i needed was bugged even though i did it. Used this to RIGHTFULLY give myself the achievment. :)
Appreciate it man. Was playing Fallout New Vegas on Xbox Game Pass but had several mods for stability I wanted to use and the complete edition is on sale for $6. Bought it on steam, but even though my save transferred I didn't get any achievements. Unlocked the ones I know for sure I've completed using SAM and will just grind the others. Thanks!
ty. needed to use this for my final achievement in Tekken 7. had to beat someone in a tournament match, but no one runs tournament matches when im on anymore LOL
Only work around is go to Steam website, search the game you want to get the achievement for, copy the app number into SAM and click search and it would show up. Until its fixed that be the only way, as usually all your games load up when you open SAM. For example, I search "Tokyo Xanadu eX+" on Steam website, copy "587260" from the browser search bar, and paste it into SAM search bar.
I lost this really hard achievement I completed after some steam cloud save issues and I gave up trying to fix it because I never knew this was a thing, thanks for the straight forward process on how to do everything you have no idea how gratefuI am :)
Well, I used this 10 minutes ago and it still works if anyone is wondering! Thank you for this now I can re-enjoy many games and get the achievements all over again
You won't get banned by vac, but you CAN get banned by certain game devs. For example a friend used this in dead by daylight and was permabanned from the game on that account. Just be aware of this.
this doesn't seem to work anymore. just downloaded the latest version and tried to remove Idle Champions. it failed with "Protected Achievements" so if devs can protect achievements its likely that only old/abandoned games will still be possible to wipe clean. EDIT: correction. unticking individual achievements doesn't work, but clicking Reset all did work to wipe them all out. w00t!
I figured out the solution, you gotta put the game id next to "add game" then press it and it will show up, go to the game's store page and check the URL. The last number in the URL is the application ID.
Thanks for the video. With Half-Life 2 getting an anniversary patch and all of Episode 1 and 2 achivements been added to the main game I decided to remove all of my achivements and do it all over again

@@mrpineapplecc5342 thanks, yeah i was just able to remove everything from like 10 games so far and had to cheat a couple achievements in to get the games that i had perfect on to go away . hopefully this not banable , for literally only way to fix my issue was with this tool . thank you
same here EDIT: i got it to work. you go to the store page on your browser and copy the numbers (example store.steampowered.com/app/620). Put the numbers to the left of the add game button then click add game. You might have to restart SAM or the game but it worked for me. :)
Steam Achievement Manager was working just fine for me yesterday, and the developer's blog website seems to be down today so maybe that has something to do with it somehow. The developer is on Twitter and Twitch, @gibbed, so maybe somebody who has an account with either of those websites can try contacting him there to see what the issue is.
It is really weird that today everyone has that problem Edit: You can manually add games with their AppID which you can find on steamdb.info, so that you can still use it till it gets fixed.

Thank you so much! As someone who uses mods some games don't think I'm playing through steam so this was a way to circumvent that. I truly appreciate you :)
Of course it's not bannable, it's simply doing the same thing some mods do, which is to trigger a simple command to unlock the achievements. Even the command to remove achievements has been officially used in some games like the endless loops in the Stanley Parable demo. But this is also why we'll never have rewards or other cool stuff linked to achievements unless the system is changed, but it's too late for that now considering how many games are already designed with the current system in mind.
Just a heads up, I did this to remove my achievements in Dark Souls: Remastered, and I got instantly banned from all DS:R online play upon logging back in. Fortunately I was able to appeal and Bamco support actually came through and unbanned me. But still, use at your own risk!
Thanks, I've removed 3 achievements that I've accidentally unlocked on terraria while playing around with mods. I will probably only use this to remove those types of achievements
Thanks a million for the video! Coming here from Dead Rising 3's janky achievements that either don't spawn in or just don't work entirely. Your video is a huge help for us achievement hunters that encounter these sh*tty issues
Thanks, dude. I beat senator armstrong without taking damage on hard, didnt' get the achievement, then looked to SAM for help. You're a fucking legend for this.
I figured out the solution, you gotta put the game id next to "add game" then press it and it will show up, go to the game's store page and check the URL. The last number in the URL is the application ID.
ive used a cheat in stardew valley to get more money and regreted being "unloyal" to my gamer soul... so i just deleted my achievements to feel a lil more pure, thank you so much
Thanks, now I got some stupid achievements from gmod, like playing the game for 365 days in total or playing with the real Garry (Which is almost impossible at this time)
The Garry achievement is impossible without SAM or speaking to Garry himself. Garry has completely stopped playing and even has gone on record saying he has no interest in playing anymore. Though someone did message him on discord once and convinced him to play for a few hours which allow over 400 people to legitimately get the achievement.
Yeah, garry last played on a server in around 2018, he barely launches the game anymore, even if he does he usually doesnt play, and if theres a slight chance he joins bots will most likely fill it within seconds
@@dononating Imagine a VAC moderator getting on several HVH servers
5 лет назад
cTechnically, they can. No matter what you edit, editing a steam file is cheating or hacking in some way. But Valve doesen't care. No matter if it is idle master or achievement manager, they have never banned anyone for using such tools. They don't seem to care at all because many steam games have either completely bugged, unoptainable or impossible achievements (e.g Garrys Mod). But if your account has any value to you, I would still use it with care and definitelky not use it in any VAC protected game.
Wooo! Thanks, very thy for you, finally i can reset my achievements. I dont like hacking, (when i was younger i always hack in minecraft XDD) but its good feeling when you get an achievement
Thanks m8. Accidentally unlocked an achievement in skyrim when I was fuckin around with mods and wanted to get rid of it so I could unlock it proper. Big help.
Man that was epic and still working! I got some achievements accidentally when I was cheating to test a mod I was making and I was really bumped cause they were the hardest for the game. Glad to see I can achieve them normally on my playthrough again!
Your a legend , i let my cousin on my pc for 2 days and he decided to cheat on bo3 and gave the account all the achievements which i wasn't happy with at all as i was trying to plat the game at the time this saved my ass thank you
god thank you so much, I literally had to get my self unstuck somewhere in Subnautica Below Zero (many people had the same issue) and had to use the console and could not get achievements anymore. This is a mental life savior for me.
THANK YOU! I used this years ago to cheat in achievements, I have grown and recognized the error of my ways, now I'm here to use this to remove the achievements I cheated in >:)
This could be an honest thing to do. Suppose someone wants to "transfer" their legitimate achievements from Xbox, they could just select only achievments they've already earned by going through their list on Xbox and apply them to Steam with this tool. I might try this, but only for ones that I have already earned, hopefully they are named the same and all that. Edit: Oh crap it looks like I'd have to buy the games again but for Steam.
Thanks so much for this. I did a LISA the Painful run with no arms and no Joy to 100% it, it was miserable, and then the achievement bugged. I almost flipped my house over. This is a life saver.

@@mrpineapplecc5342 thanks, yeah i was just able to remove everything from like 10 games so far and had to cheat a couple achievements in to get the games that i had perfect on to go away . hopefully this not banable , for literally only way to fix my issue was with this tool . thank you
@@KatouMiwa heck yeah :)
Thanks lad i finally got the stuff in pokernight in the inventory, love ya lad!
do you actually own the game or is there a way to unlock the achievements without owning it?
@Krusher Reborn nah, you dont get banned for using it
awesome but it only shows "spacewar" and nothing else could you help me with this?
You can manually add games with their AppID which you can find on steamdb.info, so that you can still use it till it gets fixed.
^
same here EDIT: i got it to work. you go to the store page on your browser and copy the numbers (example store.steampowered.com/app/620). Put the numbers to the left of the add game button then click add game. You might have to restart SAM or the game but it worked for me. :)
Steam Achievement Manager was working just fine for me yesterday, and the developer's blog website seems to be down today so maybe that has something to do with it somehow. The developer is on Twitter and Twitch, @gibbed, so maybe somebody who has an account with either of those websites can try contacting him there to see what the issue is.
@TC STORAGE It only shows spacewar for me too still
Yeah guys , it really working , no bug , no ban , just clean achievments . Ty dude!
did you take vac ban?
@@ryder2167 do you even know what vac is?
Can't get it to work, shows 1 game which I don't even own. anyone know how I can fix this??
same and i just launched it after a month
It is really weird that today everyone has that problem
Edit: You can manually add games with their AppID which you can find on steamdb.info, so that you can still use it till it gets fixed.
same, is it also spacewar?

Type the game id u guys want to the searching box then click add
hey so im not seeing any of my games. A while ago when I first got the app it worked fine but now I dont see any of my games. Is there a fix for this?
This video really helped, I wanted to remove an achievement I got accidentally and didn't earn, so this helped a lot
SURE
@@kaiba6345 no I actually did
thanks to this I was to fix my henry stickmin and slime rancher achievements, so thankyou very much
Is there a way, how can I remove achievements from game I do not own or it's not in the steam store ?
you cant if you dont own it. it has to be in your library
Thank you so much! As someone who uses mods some games don't think I'm playing through steam so this was a way to circumvent that. I truly appreciate you :)
Of course it's not bannable, it's simply doing the same thing some mods do, which is to trigger a simple command to unlock the achievements. Even the command to remove achievements has been officially used in some games like the endless loops in the Stanley Parable demo.
But this is also why we'll never have rewards or other cool stuff linked to achievements unless the system is changed, but it's too late for that now considering how many games are already designed with the current system in mind.
is that actually how it works? I was quite afraid of using it, but now I assume it's rather safe...?
it will get you banned in games that arent vac protected but with other anti cheats
cuz this is cheating
Thank you man. You this was very helpful and you have a calming voice!
Just a heads up, I did this to remove my achievements in Dark Souls: Remastered, and I got instantly banned from all DS:R online play upon logging back in. Fortunately I was able to appeal and Bamco support actually came through and unbanned me. But still, use at your own risk!
I love you so much! Im losing my sanity over bugged achievments that the gamemakers just wont fix ..
he doesn t work anymore
why is your voice so soothing like bro i just want to get the military grade jack hat
Thanks, I've removed 3 achievements that I've accidentally unlocked on terraria while playing around with mods.
I will probably only use this to remove those types of achievements
Same, didn't want my friends to be disappointed.
That's exactly why I came here
same i decided to spawn in the terrarian and next thing i know everybody's congratulating me
Why would you remove it? Sorry if it is a stupid question but i dont understand it
HAZARD because it’s much more enjoyable to actually achieve something legitimately
Bro thank you i hate to learn any japanese game In whole yakuza series and not i can just skip it you the kind of guy everyone needs
I don’t want look like a bot or anything, but I did something like this back in 2019 and I haven’t gotten banned so that’s good
Thanks a million for the video! Coming here from Dead Rising 3's janky achievements that either don't spawn in or just don't work entirely. Your video is a huge help for us achievement hunters that encounter these sh*tty issues
Thanks, dude. I beat senator armstrong without taking damage on hard, didnt' get the achievement, then looked to SAM for help. You're a fucking legend for this.
lmfao respect. That s how chads use achievment manager
I did in Elden ring the Ranni Ending and didnt get any archivment for that, gonna use this. Thanks alot.
I just cured my OCD
That is the exact reason why I used it.
bro thank you so much i cheated to get all my achievements a long time ago but then i regretted it so i tried to delete them this was perfect thanks
"I just have to warn you... There is no danger"
Mate thats the best guide video ever trust me.
my games don' pop up
I figured out the solution, you gotta put the game id next to "add game" then press it and it will show up, go to the game's store page and check the URL. The last number in the URL is the application ID.
ive used a cheat in stardew valley to get more money and regreted being "unloyal" to my gamer soul... so i just deleted my achievements to feel a lil more pure, thank you so much
Thanks, now I got some stupid achievements from gmod, like playing the game for 365 days in total or playing with the real Garry (Which is almost impossible at this time)
The Garry achievement is impossible without SAM or speaking to Garry himself.
Garry has completely stopped playing and even has gone on record saying he has no interest in playing anymore. Though someone did message him on discord once and convinced him to play for a few hours which allow over 400 people to legitimately get the achievement.
Yeah, garry last played on a server in around 2018, he barely launches the game anymore, even if he does he usually doesnt play, and if theres a slight chance he joins bots will most likely fill it within seconds
Came here to get a couple bugged out achievements. Was not disappointed in the least. Thanks, Chute!
I am only using this to remove achivements
So i don’t Think they could Ban me for that
R.o.b the weird thing is you can’t be banned on steam unless you hack on valve servers than youll get a vac ban
@@dononating Imagine a VAC moderator getting on several HVH servers
cTechnically, they can. No matter what you edit, editing a steam file is cheating or hacking in some way. But Valve doesen't care.
No matter if it is idle master or achievement manager, they have never banned anyone for using such tools.
They don't seem to care at all because many steam games have either completely bugged, unoptainable or impossible achievements (e.g Garrys Mod).
But if your account has any value to you, I would still use it with care and definitelky not use it in any VAC protected game.
Lol yea I used to achievement hunt on Xbox legit and they care if you legitimately get them.
removing works same way as adding so it can get u banned
Thank you! I had over 120 smite achievements from Xbox that weren't unlocking and this worked
Wooo! Thanks, very thy for you, finally i can reset my achievements. I dont like hacking, (when i was younger i always hack in minecraft XDD) but its good feeling when you get an achievement
Dude u cant use this in minecraft
@@yvo1210 Hacking as in he hacks in other games and he put an example of hacking in minecraft when he was young
Thanks m8. Accidentally unlocked an achievement in skyrim when I was fuckin around with mods and wanted to get rid of it so I could unlock it proper. Big help.
Man that was epic and still working! I got some achievements accidentally when I was cheating to test a mod I was making and I was really bumped cause they were the hardest for the game. Glad to see I can achieve them normally on my playthrough again!
Same for me,I had menyoo for gta 5 then I pressed this get all achievement buttons,and I messed everything up but ima see if I can fix it
@@Luphordo i need clean installation of gtv5 to make this work? I also had menyoo mod and i messed things up
So you have to have the game installed? You can't manage achievements for games you own that are not installed?
No, just own it.
Thanks. Some hacker on Terraria gave me the terrarian and I wanted to get rid of the achievement.
Similar problem for Terraria with me
Your a legend , i let my cousin on my pc for 2 days and he decided to cheat on bo3 and gave the account all the achievements which i wasn't happy with at all as i was trying to plat the game at the time this saved my ass thank you
why i cant see my games?:(
Use vpn
Does not work on gta, i accidently game myself all the avcheavmetns but as soon as i remove them it just get it again
I get an error when i select a game : failed to start SAM.GAME.EXE can you please help ?
Copy everything from steam achievement folder when you extract then run Sam.game.exe as administrator
god thank you so much, I literally had to get my self unstuck somewhere in Subnautica Below Zero (many people had the same issue) and had to use the console and could not get achievements anymore. This is a mental life savior for me.
You save my life I got a few stardew valley achievements glitched and now I got them.
Dont use this to get achievements you havent achieve pls.
THANK YOU! I used this years ago to cheat in achievements, I have grown and recognized the error of my ways, now I'm here to use this to remove the achievements I cheated in >:)
This is safe right? I don’t want to redo the achievement ‘The One Free Bullet’ in HL2: Ep 1 just because I didn’t connect to the internet.
every time i rejoin the game after removing the achievements , it adds them again saying i achieved them :(
i smell someone got banned
did u get vac banned?
This could be an honest thing to do. Suppose someone wants to "transfer" their legitimate achievements from Xbox, they could just select only achievments they've already earned by going through their list on Xbox and apply them to Steam with this tool. I might try this, but only for ones that I have already earned, hopefully they are named the same and all that.
Edit: Oh crap it looks like I'd have to buy the games again but for Steam.
very helpful!! thank you for the clear crash course about this :D :D
Finally, a way to get the black rose
im kinda to afraid to try it... also when i did i did not see the game
@@notloopers1110 i got mines through sam so it's fine
