4 days, ssh. Old e-mail is gone.

I might be wrong, I think the main problem here is that your steam-account is/was registered to an email-account that no longer exists. If you had updated your contact-information BEFORE you installed the game, the case might have been different, and you would most likely have gotten your code.

You also cannot move a Steam-game between accounts as far as I know, which negates the possibility of creating a new account and moving your game to it. Games bought on Steam is locked to the account it was bought with, for obvious reasons. The only way I know of to get a working copy of a Steam-game over to another Steam-account is to purchase that game again with the correct account.

Lastly, unless you already HAVE done so (didn't find a clear answer to this in your previous posts), you should change your contact-info for the Steam-account that you bought the game with so that when Steam-support contacts you, the email ends up in an email-account that you can actually read and respond with.

Yup, the steam account with the correct address is completely irrelevant as the game wasn't registered to it.

Lesson of the day, always make sure your contact details are up to date

Solved today!

Had to wait 2 days, could have been worse.

Glad to hear you got it sorted

And very relieved to hear that losing access to the primary email address did not end up with loss of the account!!!
