I know this has been asked before but I couldn't seem to find it.

I just resubbed to Humble Choice due to a deal I got and I noticed that The Flame in the Flood is one of the games that are DRM-free via Humble Trove. I want to add it to Galaxy but I already have the game on Steam and I can't seem to figure out how to add the DRM-free version I got from Humble.

Is there a way I can force it to do this? I'd prefer to route the DRM-free copy through Galaxy since it's my "home base", so to speak, when it comes to gaming.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I don't mean to spam but this fell behind and I certainly need help if anyone has any tips on how to do this.

Logging out of the integration to remove the ownership in GOG, adding the game manually and then logging back should work.
It's not a good solution at all but it's what I'm doing since I didn't find a solution either

you can't remove the game you own from Steam because Gog is not Steam however you can just add a new verson and link to the humble one

Thanks, that worked! It's definitely something the Galaxy team needs to add going forward.

Thanks for your response! I didn't want to remove it from Steam, I just meant that I prefer to play DRM-free when I have the option and since I got the game DRM-free via Humble, I wanted to via it instead. Sadly, without disconnecting the integration as Resxt suggested, I didn't even have the "mark as owned" option. :\

the database has 3 different builds of that same game listed... just pick a different one and you can have both if thats what you want

I see you have it sorted now so great

Yeah, I didn't notice that until I tried the disconnecting fix haha. Even so, it's fixed either way so we're all good. Thanks again, both of you!
