It is impossible to remove a game from the mods list once added
I moved the install location of ksp to my other disk and removed the old one. Now i have ksp and ksp 2. I cannot remove the old one. I dont want to remove the ksp folder in steam.

Sort this out Twitch. Even if we cannot remove the useless links at least let us reorder the games so that the correct ones open when we want them too or is that part of the 'Premium' service?

I tried to do what @Shock1702 recommended but no matter what the game still remained in the list. I couldn't find any other references, so my thought is that maybe the modern Twitch client synchs settings to the cloud somehow?
Either way I found a nice thing under Settings -> Addons -> Game specific where I could "disable" the erroneous path, as well as ensure that Twitch client always starts in the addon view with my retail WoW selected.
So this is at least a viable workaround for myself right now. Takes away the frustration.
Another frustrating tidbit is that I "pin" my twitch client to the taskbar in Windows 10, but each time I start the twitch client it seem to generate a new version of itself, so I get duplicates and have to unpin/pin each time. That is a problem for a later date. :)

New Path:
"E:\Twitch\GameInstances\AddonGameInstance.json"
E is my hard drive for Twitch, change if you have it installed on C for example.Open the json and delete the old paths. Have fun with it, for me it had 34.212 lines...

This seriously needs fixed. and telling it not to manage the game as Twitch suggests is just laughable because the app just says ********* I do what I want. If you won't give us a way to remove game profiles just give us the option to reorder them at least.

FFS twitch, why is this still a problem. It's incredibly difficult and frustrating to work with this.
But I was able to remove a game finally when I found a second twitch folder in the same folder as appdata is located, that twitch folder had the game I wanted to remove. Deleting the files from there and the gameinstance json removed Minecraft from mods. -

I guess twitch doesn't give a **** considering this should have been fixed eons ago

Good grief, how is this still an issue two years later?

Thanks Aucald, I knew there had to be a file that could be edited, but checking through the default twitch install folder produced nothing. This worked like a charm.

Just rename the folder.

Yes, PLEASE address this. Even after telling Twitch not to manage WoW Beta, it still appears. And on the Mac version, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to find the file containing the games you're managing.
Curse, if you're listening, can we please just have back our old addon manager? The rest of this bloated crapware does nothing useful if you're not into streaming.

I'm really very angry about this issue. Every single time I go to update WoW, it says I have no addons, because it repeatedly defaults to WoW Beta, even though you can't install addons for any of the beta versions. Each and every time I have to manually re-select the retail version of the game to see my addons. I'm getting really disgusted with this, and now I find that there is no way to remove the beta version from the Twitch client. This issue needs to be fixed, there needs to be a way to delete games you don't want on there.

You guys have games listed that were never installed or that were uninstalled. give us a "delete game" function.

I guess the developers don't give a shit about this. Why the fuck did Curse team up with these jerks in the first place.

I found these settings in a JSON file location, at least on my system, at C:\Users\{ProfileName}\AppData\Roaming\Twitch\GameInstances\AddonGameInstance.json. Editing this JSON file and removing the group for the game instance you don't want removes it from the game dropdown as well. The Twitch client seems to auto-restore these games with regularity, though.

I need the option to remove detected game folder locations since I just moved my game to another drive. I disabled it in the config but its just annoying I can't removed dead locations like how the blizz launcher handles it.

Just Figured this one out when WOW was added twice. On the addon screen (for the one you dont want) click the settings cog wheel. go into Settings and then up the top is "Game Specific" click that then click the switch on "Addon Management" and the game is gone
