I'm trying to manually set the location of my game but I just cannot seem to find it. Can anyone give me specific instructions because I'm very lost. Any help would be amazing!

J: is internal drive, K: is SD card.

I don't have an SD card, so I'm still not sure where the path is. I'm trying to mod starfield, I hit manage and it tells me to select the game path. This is all I see. is the drive labeled "/" the J drive you're talking about? PXL_20230906_221035654

Expand My Computer in the left to see the drives.

Also, I'm guessing Starfield will require a bit more effort to mod.

We have post-deploy shortcuts for other Bethesda games to copy files to their proper locations, and Starfield might need something similar.

https://github.com/pikdum/steam-deck/blob/master/vortex/skyrim-post-deploy.sh could be a starting point.

Alright thanks! I figured out the J file thing, but after restarting my deck vortex won't open anymore. I tried running the updater but even after that it's not opening. Am I supposed to do something specific before I open vortex?

Shouldn't need to, no.
