The Game list doesn't show anything but non-Steam games. I'm on a Steam Deck, not sure how to fix this.

ProtonUp-QT version: v2.10.0
Installed from the Discover store (Flathub)

Terminal output, result of running net.davidotek.pupgui2:

When opening the issue, you would've been given an issue template to follow. This asked for various relevant pieces of information to help you here:

  • Your ProtonUp-Qt version.
  • How you installed ProtonUp-Qt.
  • Terminal output and how to obtain it (Running net.davidotek.pupgui2 for Flatpak, running with ./ from the Terminal for AppImage, unsure if there are other installation methods for Steam Deck).

The Terminal output is particularly relevant as it would show if ProtonUp-Qt failed to load any files and some error output.

I would suspect you are using an outdated version of ProtonUp-Qt that does not include the updated VDF dependency, which fixes the problem of being unable to load Steam updated VDF file format. Make sure you are using an up-to-date ProtonUp-Qt that v2.10.0 or above.

On my Steam Deck, and my Linux PC, ProtonUp-Qt v2.10.0 Flatpak works fine.

I am on the latest flatpak available in the Discover store. it says v2.10.0 in the program itself.

I will re-edit the original post, sorry.

Thanks.

Seems like a UTF-8 decode problem, see also #424. I wonder why it's happening on SteamOS now as well though.

This is fixed with #455 and will be available in the next release.
