To anyone wondering why it isn't wondering anymore, paste the launch command after like this "@@" ---window-size. Since a recent update, valve seems to be using double quotes for file directories (it could be a change that originated in arch main line) With this change, it should work flawless. Maybe Alex will see this and update it.

Thanks, I had the same issue could not get it to work on my end despite checking and searching many guides. I've seen many others face the same issues and thought it was due to having the oled model. But clearly not. Appreciate your comment helped getting it going for me

*Thank you for making it so simple with adding the link/code in the description. Did it within the first try while watching the video!*

[@joryjastrzebski3911]

I just wanted to say I love your videos. I just got a Steam Deck and your videos have been so helpful. I was having trouble setting this up and noticed that my launch option wording had quotations. If anyone else is having trouble carefully delete all the quotations and follow this video step by step and it will work. There must have been some sort of update to Microsoft Edge. I wanted to put this information out there for anyone who might be having the same issue.

[@matthewhardwick8208]

It's only a matter of time until Valve and Microsoft partner up for a native Game Pass application on the Steam Deck. I would be quite shocked if it didn't happen in the next couple of years or so. But for now I will definitely try this workaround.

[@carolinagamer2874]

Considering that the promise of COD will stay on steam from Phil didn’t require a contract tells me they got a great relationship.

[@BanishedSilentShadow3318]

Pretty sure even Gabe said that he wouldn't mind if gamepass was on the steam deck, so even he would like that idea

[@qu1253]

I doubt that will happen because it would open Game Pass up to everyone on Linux, unless they made a Game Pass app that was Steam Deck exclusive.

[@MunuM77]

​@@qu1253 Microsoft wants to stay out of regulatory trouble so putting game pass on the steam deck make sense. Plus they still want to grow gamepass subscribers.

[@aaronsoto5446]

Just finished going through this setup and it worked. One tip that I didn't see anywhere that really helped is that Steam has a Note feature. So you can copy the command strings above if you're following along on PC and it will sync over to Steam (i did have to reboot to see it). Then you can copy/paste within steam deck.

[@mintendogaming]

howdo i make a note

[@nosyerg7613]

thank you so much for being the ONE tutorial i found with code in the description

[@kestononline]

Nice. This is the same method I used to setup Stadia on my Deck. I’ve been curious about Gamepass, so I’d just have to edit the URL in the properties (and change the icon/art so it’s no longer for Stadia lol). As others mentioned, you can run Windows 10 off a MicroSD (I use for a couple of games) if you want to install the games locally. But honestly it can sometimes feel like a hassle to reboot into Windows.

[@orange_s]

Just wanted to quickly say thanks for the clear instruction! Got it setup this evening and my Friday night is sorted.
