Can I uninstall games from Steam?

I'm having a problem with my computer's memory, and I need to delete some games (there are some I don't play that often anymore), but I don't know if I have to rebuy them if I uninstall them from Steam. (I'd hate to uninstall the games because of insufficient memory, and then have to rebuy them if I want to play them again, even though I already bought them.) So what exactly should I do now? Do I have to rebuy the games if I uninstall them? :/

Do I have to buy new games when I uninstall them? :/

No, the license is enabled on your account, you can just download the games again

You can uninstall the games easily. You stay in your Steam library and you can reinstall it at any time.

Not everyone knows everything and when you get in touch with the word “Uninstall” for the first time, you sometimes have doubts.

But sometimes you expect such a little human understanding. Anyone who buys n new PC must buy all its 300+ games new. Sure.

You need to click on the game in your library, the gear on the right and there on Uninstall. Of course you can reinstall them at any time without having to buy it new

You don’t have to. You buy the games and can then install them as often as you like.

You can uninstall and reinstall the games as often as you want, you only pay once.

If the game is free, you don’t pay anything.

You go to the promising game with a right-click in the page list and go to uninstall. And no of course you don’t have to buy them new.
