Installed a bunch of desktop updates via discovery and now installing works. Either that or having steam open during install was the issue.
Still cannot access the game list
Hello,
Have same problem with show game list, and game detection generally. It is no more apprear since 1 or 2 weeks, also the tools always appear as unused wthat is false because many of my gameS pointed on GE7-42. I'm on SteamOS 3.4, install via discover.
Seems protonqt has problem with parsing or detection games The folders location is still the same for compatdata or compatibilitytools.d. it is so strange, I have try many reinstall and clear all steam cache without any improvement. Also game reinstall give nothing, try all I can to find an solutions on my side.
Thanks lots, for this very usefull tool. Hope this features will come back :) Have a good day.
Thanks for the report.
Show game list
?Also, for advanced debugging, can you run a command on the Steam Deck and post the text output here?
You can do this by opening the terminal app (called Konsole
on Steam Deck), typing following text and pressing Enter on the keyboard afterwards:
cat ~/.local/share/Steam/config/config.vdf | grep -A16 CompatToolMap
This should show a list of games (ids) and compatibility tools.
Sorry, just want to throw my hat into the ring here and say I'm seeing this on Flatpak and from source on my Steam Deck and PC. I even rolled back to a commit from source that I know was working, 8eb0432f6ed76d4b2e9b49f240fb375715d467ad, and it still shows the same.
I'm on the Steam Client Beta, I wonder if something changed here, but just wanted to say that from source I rolled back to a version that I can say for sure was working but is now apparently not.
I know you weren't asking me so I hope this isn't disruptive, but I did some testing of my own following the guidance you gave. I'll put it in spoilers as to not spam the issue and hide it if it's not useful.
After testing I can confirm the issue is with the steam
library's version being out of date, possibly related to https://github.com/ValvePython/steam/issues/418.
Updating to v1.4.4 fixes the issue.

Thanks! That was helpful as I wasn't able to replicate the issue (I haven't updated the Steam client for a few days).
Thanks for the report.
- What is shown in the dialog when you press
Show game list
?- Are there any games in the game list and what does it show for compatibility tool, is it empty?
- Also, what happens if you set a game to GE-Proton7-42 in the game list dialog and close and re-open ProtonUp-Qt? (Do this while Steam is not open.) Will it then display the correct compatibility tool or is it still broken?
Also, for advanced debugging, can you run a command on the Steam Deck and post the text output here? You can do this by opening the terminal app (called
Konsole
on Steam Deck), typing following text and pressing Enter on the keyboard afterwards:cat ~/.local/share/Steam/config/config.vdf | grep -A16 CompatToolMap
This should show a list of games (ids) and compatibility tools.
Looks like we are already onto the fix, but for the record the behavior is that nothing happens when you try to open the game list, where normally it would bring up the window with each game and the compatibility options.
Another clue is that I have configured games to use proton-ge-42 but the main window indicates it is unused.
Describe the bug
May be two bugs...
I was running protonupqt successfully for 2 months but when I went to check for new proton updates today the app would not open the game list when the button was pressed. I rebooted and it was the same. I'm using the dec 8 preview build on my steamdeck.
Next I attempted to remove and reinstall. The discover app aborts the install, complaining about the flatpak having a bad commit signature key with a bad date associated. Removing local data from previous install did not resolve.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Open app
Click 'show games list
Nothing happens
Search app in Discovery, install
See error
Expected behavior
Loads games list for proton selection.
Installs via discovery without error.
