How To Install Custom Proton On The Steam Deck!

How To Install Custom Proton On The Steam Deck!
Today I'm going to show you how to install custom versions of proton onto the steam deck. The process is super easy and with the click of a few buttons, you can have a ProtonGE version running on your Steam Deck.
Give ProtonGE a try in order to improve stability, performance, and overall better compatibility with windows games on Linux. Thank you all so much for all the support. I couldn't do this without you! Until next time guys, I'm Josh with For The Love Of Games signing out. Have a great day!

Getting my Deck this week, Do you use this for every game or only ones that won't work with the original steam system,, and how do you get back off proton,? Thanks

In the video I’m showing how you can set proton ge across every title in a global setting. You can set different versions of proton as Fanis has stated in the comments of this video which I can also make a video on how to set it for each individual game. The steam deck is a Linux based system so proton is always going to install for each game. If you want to run the native proton version that valve ships then in the drop down menu you would select the newest version of proton that doesn’t have the GE in the name or you could use protonup qt to uninstall the GE version.

Don't change proton from global settings. Instead just change for any individual game you need it. (right click on the game -> properties -> compatibility -> check Force.

Thank you for this reminder! I forgot you could even set individual versions of proton on different games. I will be making another video highlighting how to do this. Again, thank you for the reminder.

I’m going insane, I’ve done everything right in this video and it’s not even showing the custom proton on my compatibility
