Good day guys! I am currently in the process of moving from Windows to Ubuntu. And part of that migration is transferring programs (installing a Linux version on Ubuntu). I just have some questions.

On my Windows System, I have Steam for Windows Installed. I was wondering because I initially had 4 games on Steam. Dirty Bomb, Enclave, Soccer Manager 2015, Team Fortress 2 (Im free to play in all). In the process of transferring to Linux, I uninstalled Dirty Bomb, Soccer Manager, and Enclave. That leaves me with one game installed (TF2). These 3 games were all removed from my system. However, in the Steam Library, there are still 2 games listed (TF2 and Enclave). When I click the Enclave option, I see that it is not installed any longer on my computer. However, why can't I remove it from my Library? (that is my first question)

Now here comes the bigger problem. I have now installed Ubuntu Linux. I have Steam for Linux and have signed in with the same account I used in Windows Steam. But here it is, when I check my game library (in Linux Steam), the Enclave game is still there! And here, it shows no TF2 option! Now what I'm worrying about is that although as an f2p, I have quite a few items in my inventory, I still would like to transfer those to my TF2 Linux installation. (Im currently downloading TF2 Linux btw) Now what I want to know is that when I finish installing TF2 on Linux, would I still be able to get the items I got from playing in Windows on my new Linux version?

thanks and sorry long message!
