You're using SteamTinkerLaunch v12.12, which is outdated. Please try a reinstall with SteamTinkerLaunch-git. There should be an AUR package you can use with
Also, this error is Wine-specific, and not something afaik that SteamTinkerLaunch can fix. I also don't experience it, sometimes it happens on fresh installs for some users and sometimes it goes away on its own (I have seen reports of it with MO2 that just went away).
I don't think this issue is what is causing Vortex problems though, I suspect either Vortex is broken again or the issue is that Vortex v1.8.0 does not install properly with the very old SteamTinkerLaunch v12.12.
I checked for issues with wine and don't see anything, so I don't think it's a wine problem.
Do keep in mind that the versions of Wine used and reported on WineHQ are entirely separate from the custom Wine builds used by Proton flavours, and contain many different patches. Plus, Proton is very Steam-specific, and uses things like the Steam Linux Runtime and custom prefix creation logic that differs a great deal from regular Wine :-)
For Proton, Valve have forked Wine and it has been heavily modified compared to base Wine. Valve's Wine has many branches and forks, and even GE-Proton uses the bleeding-edge branch but with even more custom patches on top (including patches from pending Valve Wine PRs).
I hope I didn't miss anything in the wiki for Vortex, but I don't think I did.
Not really, don't worry :-)
I think if anything the only thing you might have missed is the Vortex changes on the wiki changelog, the issue template does say to check this beforehand, but don't worry too much over it.
Just try using STL-git for now, I will probably not be releasing a stable STL anytime soon, it's just a Bash script so it's pretty pointless to make a release that does the same thing as downloading the repo code with the green button on the main page.
Vortex still installs correctly on my PC last time I checked, so hopefully it works with an up-to-date git version.
Should the error persist, try double-checking the Wine version set in the Vortex prefix with winecfg
. If you try to install Vortex with the latest STL-git and it gives this error, first make sure the prefix exists (in your case likely at ~/.config/steamtinkerlaunch/vortex/compatdata/pfx
and make sure it looks like a healthy prefix i.e. not empty, expected directory structure for drive_c
and so on), and if it does you can run steamtinkerlaunch vortex winecfg
to run Winecfg in the prefix. If you've never used this program, it comes as standard with many Wine and Proton flavours, and is used to tweak Wine prefixes. It has a dropdown to edit the Windows version.
Everything it does can manually be done from the registry by the way, but the keys are often cumbersome to edit (unless you're used to editing the Windows registry, which I am not :wink:). WineHQ does note some useful ones though, so if you find one that you want to tweak, you can edit either with a Wine command directly (make sure to use the GE-Proton wine executable or else you might bork your prefix) or running GE-Proton's regedit
System Information
Issue Description
Vortex fails to start even after wiping caches and config files clean. I wanted to mod Fallout 4 again, not sure if the game matters. The first time I installed Vortex, it ran fine, but I messed up something and wanted to start over, so I read the wiki, wiped the files for a fresh start, installed again, but now I continuously get the 1.8.0+ Windows 10 only error. I made sure it will use GE-Proton8-2 or the latest GE-Proton8-23. I hope I didn't miss anything in the wiki for Vortex, but I don't think I did.

I checked for issues with wine and don't see anything, so I don't think it's a wine problem.
