Your system information

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

There's no option to set the preset controller configuration to one designated for desktop mode. It's only useful for anything requiring mouse inputs.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Add non-steam game to the steam client in desktop mode on the deck.
  2. Launch the installer(.exe with compatibility mode).
  3. Only touchscreen handles mouse inputs now.
  4. There is the web browser preset which might be sufficient.

Having the option to run the same preset during application setup in desktop mode would be pretty nice for anything more involving.

I'll make another issue for it, but it's not possible to rename the categories in desktop mode without a keyboard plugged in. The x button hides the text input prompt, clicking on the input with a touchscreen doesn't change what text box the text writes into.
