I found some keys that are not revealed at HB but not sure if used or not.

Not revealed would mean not used as you have to reveal a key to use the key in steam right?

If you didn't reveal them, then the keys should be valid.

I'd say I had the same problem.
Have you tried to generate a link instead of getting a key?

If it says that you already own them, but the key wasn't previously revealed than it simply means that you had them in your library already, but key is probably still valid. If you're unsure, offer one of the games to a friend and see if they can activate the key. ;)

If a key is unrevealed, it's supposed to be unused because you cannot have seen/used the key till the moment you revealed them.

There is no option to hide the keys once you reveal them at HB, so your keys are unused if they are not revealed.

At least one interface update a while back made previously-revealed keys unrevealed again. So, as a general rule, I agree with you, but there are definitely exceptions.

(I know for certain this is the case because I've "revealed" keys that I'd written down already, and the "newly-revealed" key was still the same as the one I'd written down.)

Hmmm. Strange. That never happened to me. All the keys i have revealed or turned into gift links stay that way. At least so far.

I heard stories before of people having revealed and used a key and months later, they key was unrevealed again and no idea if it was used or not, I think when revealing they got a new key, but not 100% sure anymore so can't help you there.

High chance to see "Keys are temporarily exhausted for this product" on reveal (or if winner will try to activate gift) - I have 2 keys in that state for ages.

Mine sometimes still show as unrevealed even though I know I revealed them XD I'd generally advise to getting rid of the key you don't want for yourself asap, I have something from a year ago that they still have no new keys for XD

Happened to me in the past too...
In my case it was due to Chrome caching of Humble site.
Reloading/Refreshing the site helps (i.e. reveals all the revealed keys, even if they appeared hidden before).

I have a key of pre-purchase bonus in this case. I don't know if it was unrevealed or replaced.

I've had Humble hide keys again that I used. I don't know what caused it.

The last time I remember it occurring was a couple years ago.

Are you suddenly deciding to do giveaways? You should ;)

The only time that happens to me is when I reveal some Humble keys and then refresh the page shortly thereafter, sometimes they show up as being unrevealed. But usually waiting a little bit, refreshing, or using a different browser to check always shows me what is already revealed.

One thing I would suggest you check is your activated game time:
https://store.steampowered.com/account/licenses/

and compare to your Humble purchase dates and see if they correspond. I know this doesn't work for a lot of people, since a lot of people decide to activate keys a lot later, but at least it may give you an idea.

This thread is three months old. It was bumped by someone angry the OP hasn't been on to receive a win.
