Why is my Steam account showing logins from unusual locations?

I've noticed that my Steam account was accessed from my computer but apparently from Paris, which is quite strange. I've checked for viruses, and my system appears clean. Can anyone explain what's going on or what I should do next?

Data breaches happen more often than we think. It's possible someone could have taken your email and password from another site and used it to access your Steam account. I recommend changing your password and setting up additional two-factor authentication methods to boost your security.

Changing your Bitwarden passwords is definitely a smart move if you think someone got into your PC. If youโ€™re sure about the unauthorized access, it might be best to consider reinstalling your operating system. Just make sure to back up your files first and double-check you have your software license keys.

First, take a look at the programs installed on your computer. Sometimes, remote access software can be installed without being flagged as a virus. Itโ€™s a good idea to check for anything suspicious there.
