For all the new Steam Deck owners: THIS IS THE BEST TUTORIAL. Hands down. This one is the one you want to follow.
I appreciate that. Im working on an updated version as well to fill in some things I wanna add. But this still is very relevant and works great
Did you manage to make the games from other launchers boot from steam directly?
@@GameTechPlanetis there something we need to do differently to get gamepass launcher to work? It’s downloaded but it won’t launch
@@alexdroog7236 gamepass / xbox app wont work on steamos unfortunately. Gamepass ypu need to either use cloud streaming or windows on deck
@@GameTechPlanet How do you use cloud streaming on steam deck?
Hey guys I'm the creator of NonSteamLaunchers, first and foremost thank you to everyone who has tried to use my little script for the majority of the year. I also want to say I hear your frustrations, hopefully very soon most of these issues will be fixed, going forward, please keep your eye on the Decky Plugin Version of NSL in the Testing Store of Decky Loader. Going forward I recommend that over the desktop version.
i am trying that now and it doesn't install the epic store for me, allow it to show up, or let me boot it
Do you mean we should not follow the first half of this tutorial video and should instead just install Decky, then go to the Testing Store of Decky Loader and install the NSL plugin there and go about my business that way?
@@flowersniffin9233 I had the same issue and found that going into the apps properties > compatibility > force > proton experimental let it work for me w/out issue.
Same question as above?
Roy, this video didn't work for me, the apps crash on launch. So I read this reply and installed Decky Loader on your recommendation. I enabled pre-release, but there's NOT any reference to your application there. Please explain what I'm doing wrong.
Thank you so much dude!!! It helped me a lot, I was struggling installing third party launcher but you've saved me
Excellent video. Thank you. Everything worked proper. I also appreciate you explaining the controller lay out
I am doing an SSD upgrade this weekend and this will make it so much easier to add my third party launchers. Thanks so much for the video. I smashed the subscribe button.
Holding the steamm button on the launcher will allow you to use the mouse without having to change controls too. In case anybody didn't wannna do all that extra stuff for all the launchers.
Thank you so much for this tip!!! I was so bored of using the touch screen on those third party launchers
This is very important and usefull, i used it in yuzu all the time
omfg thank you, that makes using the ea app a million times easier
Can you describe how to do this in a little more detail? I have a deck coming and not sure what the steam button is. Do you mean a physical button or an on-screen button?
@@heibk-2017 nope, the steam button it’s a physical button on the bottom left of the steam deck
Awesome video mate. Can’t wait to do this. Never bothered with others until now. Cheers
This is amazing. Thank you. I just got my Deck yesterday. I'll be doing this later.
Congrats. If for whatever reason this method doesn’t work well for you there are other methods as well. I still prefer doing each manually myself
Did this method work for you my deck is coming in 2 days just to make sure
@@user-oi6qf6ox2v sadly, I've been playing a lot and haven't tried it yet. 😂
This deck is amazing I tell ya.
This makes it MUCH easier! I struggled to install Ubisoft Connect on my own.
Yea its not perfect but it helps simplify the process alot.
Hi@@GameTechPlanet a quick question that I've seen someone else ask but not seen it answered anywhere, does this only work for games purchased on these individual platforms, or does it also work for games purchased on Steam (such as FIfa / Ea Sports FC or whatever they're calling it these days?) Thank you.
Great Video, thanks a thousand times for it ! It will solve some points that had make me very unhappy at the Deck.
Niceeee glad it helped out.
What about scrolling with the left trackpad how do you set that up? Like how it is on desktop mode
And why is Epic launcher not full screen when choosing games i choose to maximize it and its stuck at a square aspect ratio
If you move your finger clockwise on the left track pad it will scroll down.
Outstanding tutorial, thank you!
Man this is the best tutorial to anyone who just got their deck for Xmas or whatever THIS IS THE TUTORIAL YALL NEED !!!! thank you bro you did a great job you helped alotta people
OMG u are a lifesaver! I was about to restore to factory settings then I founs your vid.
Great video, well done. Explained everything pretty good.
This is so much easier then how I was doing it before, thank you.
It’s way more complex what you mean
than*
@@phrozac Actually "Than" is used to indicate comparison to show who or what something is compared against, when I used "Then" I was talking more past-tense. "Then" is used to show time, as in “at that time” or “after that happened.” and also "Before I knew that".
@@ChirstInTheDistance Whoa! Plot twist!
You are full of shit.. the dude is right @@ChirstInTheDistance
i just did this on the oled and the video still works just as well so good on you! and for those wondering it still works as intended.
Yup. I did the same on oled. It does still work. Same quirks as always tho. Sometimes it does successfully add the lau chers to steam in which case its easy to add yourself. Working on an upddated video for this guide but yea this still works
@@GameTechPlanetdo games through heroic launcher run better or the same as with this method?
I can’t get either launchers to successfully play Fortnite. If I try to launch the app it just says failure to open properly.
@@sethsmith4963 fortnite needs anti cheat to run. You’ll have to dual boot windows. Just make a windows to go on an SD card and install it there.
@@sethsmith4963 pretty sure Fortnite is blocked on Steam Deck. Linux in general I think.
Great Video dude, much appreciate it.
Do I have to still install Visual C++ in order to launch certain games?
Thanks in advance ❤
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!
I can manually set these all up but this is great, thank you for bringing it to out attention. I have one question, love the soft keyboard you have that pops up on screen where did you get it?
Its in the steam points store
Thanks for the guide. 🙂
My only question is... Do you use this only for games you own on these platforms only ? Or also for games you own in steam which use these platforms ?
If the latter, i guess you don't get the steam achievements and time tracking ?
This is an amazing video, super helpful!!
Thank you bro, absolute legend for this
thx for this tutorial....just got a new subscriber 😊.
I'm waiting my 2Tb SSD to install os the stuff on my 64Gb steam deck. 😊
With this tutorial i no longer need the dual boot with windows
This channel its 10/10
I have been hesitant of doing anything remotely like this with my SteamDeck. I was afraid I would brick it, as I am not really computer savvy. Seeing this video gives me more confidence that I can do it. Thank you!!
You usually brick stuff updating your firmware/bios, these are simple programs so don't worry, if they cause any issue it's very very rare that a program like this brick your whole device.
If you do end up bricking it you can at least get the recovery file from steam. Will suck having to start fresh but at least it’s there as an option.
When you feel like that do it anyways dive deep into it your gonna hit snags and head/heartaches but when you succeed your gonna feel great and want to move into more ambitious projects win lose or draw you gained some xp so level up fellow gamer 😎
@@kmyymk2 that’s actually a nice way of looking at it. 🧐
@@stefanorigatoI think by bricking he meant corrupting or breaking steam os too.
It sucks because he is right, it can happen.
I had to recover mine after a dual boot I did without the sd card in 🤷♂️
NGL, I was debating on getting a Steamdeck. Knowing now I can use other game launchers on the deck, making me want to get one
Hey thanks for the video, but do you know if the games installed from these launchers are automatically added to the library, as non-steam games, or do I have to do something else? I wouldn't like if I must open up epic launcher, for instance, every time I want to play a specific game
This instructions was useful and great. However, how do I add the games that I installed from their respective launchers to be added to the steam library because for some odd reason I can’t find the file path of the game itself that I installed from the respective launchers on the steam deck
To the people who cant get the launchers to show in steam after installing, go to the launcher again and tap Uninstall, delete the ones that arent loading then simply reinstall them, if that doesnt work I am not sure unfortunately, enjoy and thank you for teaching us
Unfortunately didn’t work for me 😢
@@angli8114tell me the steps you did
great video, im trying to finnish my steam games before other launchers but great video
This was very easy to follow and worked. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you ! Managed to install the launcher (Epic), installed the game, but it does not launches from the launcher, not in game mod nor in desktop mode
Hey guys be aware that this method keeps getting broke then fixed. I hope it gets stable as when it works like it did for me when making the video its magic. But when it doesn’t it’s frustrating. I still prefer installing all these launchers one at a time manually. I have videos for that and will be working on an updated video as well. As for this app keep an eye on it for updates and fixes. I was on stable os with just one profile logged into the deck when this was working. If you go thru the proamd the launchers arent auto added to steam for some reason. Usually you can go to where they were installed and still add them manually as you normally would. If this method doesn’t work out for you just uninstall everything and do these manually. They work great that way.
dam i just tried it and it broke my battle net link and i had diablo 3 downloaded, how do i delete it now?
This method is just bad, period. The maintainer doesn't follow conventions and everything uses a single prefix. Neither of these things are good, and this developer should be shunned until he starts doing things right. Use Lutris instead
@@jfaristide lol dam maybe i shouldnt have used it
So what’s the point of having these launchers in steam? Do all the games inside them work now? I thought heroic launcher was the way to play Epic stuff 🤔
Btw thanks for mentioning this SteamGridDB thing, holy crap I was adding all these custom arts manually thru steam and downloading them off the site myself until now 🤦🏼♂️
Does anyone know how I uninstall the NonSteamLaunchers files properly? Can I just delete the files?
Thank You very much. Much appreciated. 🙏🏾
This guys deserves a sub. Great video
Thanks for this; Very smooth process and games that you install from the launchers show up as playable games in Deck Mode, which is handy (no additional configuration or "add to library" type fiddling necessary).
How do you then configure controller profiles per game that you install?
How do you add a gane to the steam launcher after it is installed with the Ubisoft Launcher?
same. I really just wanna play my fall guys and my forts. I don't really want all the extra launchers
Does this fix issues with Kingdom hearts 1.5 fmv thru epic? Or is it just an alternative to heroic launcher?
Very good question i want to know that as well hmmm
I'm speechless everything works great ❤❤❤❤
You are an absolute awesome human being! Thank you!
Okay so I just got a deck this morning as a gift from the wifey pooh.
So those of you that are having a problem with game pass, what I did was unclicked the force compatibility experimental mode. You don’t need it at all!
It then launched as an app & didn’t time out or crash while launching.
My controllers work as well. Thanks for the video fam!
I followed all steps , reboot SD and it doesn't show any launcher in my library? Any suggestions?
Nice vid, it works thanks 🙏🏼
Once you have the launcher and dl the game do you just use that to launch the game instead of adding the game to the steam library or should you just use it to install games and then add to library and configure proton?
Great video! Is possible do add the games installed with this launchers as separate Steam Games so I can launch they with one click? And if so, how?
I really need to know that too 🤔🤔🤔
A part from gog games all other launchers don't let you launch their games without the launcher anyway
@@Jur1_00 but maybe there is a workaround to make the launcher load and then load the game directly
@@Jur1_00 not true, amazon games don't need the launcher and many from epic don't either
Not sure what I am doing wrong, but when steam restarts, non of the launchers are there. I tried to reinstall using the cleanup option and reload, but still they are not there.
Can someone help?
Same Issue Here
@@TimPen same issue
same
Yep same
same😢
Awesome tutorial, thanks
Thank you!!!! Save lives in many ways 😂
I tried the Heroic Launcher a while ago, but even with a seperate Proton app/ launcher I couldn't get anything to work. So maybe this app restores some faith in me being able to do this.
(I also tried Xemu on both Steam Deck and my pc and both didn't work as intented either despite following the instruction video to a tee😭😭)
So Heroic works with pretty much all games, own experience, if that's not the case with you, then you're definitely making a mistake. I suspect you have not set Proton correctly. This is installed outside of Heroic and selected in Heroic. It definitely works, the program is an absolute dream.
Same here, heroic stopped working randomly after following tutorial strictly, hope this regains my trust in these type of work around for now. Until either it's official in valves book
@@MrAboutLife worked and works normal here....
Everything says installed, restarted steam but none of the apps are showing in my library at all, any ideas? i do have the tabs checked to show the different software on the games list.
Same. Doesn't work for me
Same for me too - decky installed though
@@danpelos i just had to go back the other way to do it, by going to each of the sites, downloading the launcher and adding non steam game that way. Everything showed up and was able to install that way. Sometimes these easier automated ways seem appealing and easier but not always reliable.
Great video. Thank you. Well done
Great guide worked flawlessly. Only one I couldn't get rubbing for some reason was Xbox game pass & playstation plus. Yet everything else👌🏾
Any ideas on why non of the launchers are showing in my steam library…. Followed everything as in the video, but can’t find any of them.
I’m having the same problem. Hope someone can share the answer.
Not showing in mone aswell
Can’t find anything on my library after install. Has anyone find a fix?
Did fresh install and restarted steam deck twice after fixed it for me
Having the same issues
yup having same issue here
Following. Same issue
I had the same issue so i did them one at a time and it worked for me
Most excellent tutorial 👌 Thanks
Just ordered mine, a lot to unpack but so worth it.
I run the software but the apps dont show up in my steam library
Same here
same here
Same very frustrating
Same..anyone found a fix?
Same here
Launchers do not appear in steam after the installation. Please help
Apparently the app is currently broken we will need to wait till there is an update to the app.
What app
Same for me it's not showing up
@gzero26 do you know where this information is reported? I tried finding it on github etc but it would be nice to keep an eye on things as I just tried this tutorial and it still isn't showing up
Thank you!😊
great video,easy to understand !
It doesn’t work well. The different apps are installed but they don’t get added to steam
Same issue I’m having.
Same here, so I just reinstalled everything one or two at a time and it worked. I also restarted the deck before just in case
EA did not work for me, it does not open at all.
No of the launchers I wanted showed up like did you do something else to your steam deck I knew this was to good to be true
I was a bit worried about getting a steam deck, as I wasnt sure if I could run my other launchers, but your video has put that one to bed, thank you.
It’s weird almost all launchers work perfectly through Proton but not Xbox App 😂
Xbox app runs through UWP and is tightly integrated into Windows which means it's just not possible to get it running on Linux through Proton. UWP apps are encrypted which is why when all Microsoft Store games were forced to be UWP apps people couldn't modify their files at all for backing up saves or modding their games.
Non of the apps show up in my steam library automatically after the install. I have to manually browse and add them. Also the EA launcher is just completely broken. It isn't in it's install folder at all and every time I try to uninstall and reinstall it using the all-in-one software I just get error saying path not found or available.
same here
same
The app is currently broken we need to wait for an update

Hi,
I loved the video, and the installation process was clear and easy. I followed the tutorial on this video from the beginning to the end but my EA and Battle Net apps are not loading. I checked the capabilities in properties to match with the ones you suggested on this video but unfortunately not able to load the apps. Any suggestions?
I have a similar problem. It says I have no internet connection even though I browsed the steam store just secs before, I've tried several times. Any help/suggestions is appreciated.
The launchers aren’t appearing in my steam and I followed the video step by step
Yeah same here
I followed the video but the launchers were not added to my steam
same, did you fix it?
You guys closing the konsole too early wait for itself to close
@@batuozen7230 it Never close… How long do you have to wait?
Wait for the program to close itself it may take a bit but if you close it yourself it won't work, just follow the video.
@@Repoocekim when this attempt was made it was brokem however since then i have it working
Definitely buying a steam deck after this video
Excellent video my man. I am currently looking at the Asus and the Steam Deck decided which i would go with, I am a Avid WoW player and want to know if this works to play WoW on the Steam deck? I like the extra buttons the Deck has over the Asus but i like the versatility of the Asus so, this would make the Deck a better selection if it works with my fav games that are not steam. I dont like the idea of having to stream games from my desktop to the Deck.
Fantastic tutorial
Worked great. That’s bud 👍
Great video, thanks
Is there any reason to do this if I've already got the launchers installed through Lutris? Maybe stability? They seem to work ok currently. Great guide though- this looks way easier than my hassle!
You’re awesome!!! Thank you soooo much!
Why i don't see that video earlier...btw thank you so much for that video.
Thank you you’ve just saved me from tearing my hair out 😆
Great Video Man!
I use Heroic Games Launcher for Epic Games and GOG stuff, I can see this being useful for other launchers though.
Great video!
Don't you run the risk of getting banned in any of the games you play?
Güzel bilgilendirici video daha 👍
Great video, i was wondering if it will be possible to add another launcher that is not in the list. RSI launcher for Star citizen. I dont know if someone has already asked here.
Dude thank you so much. I did 2 tutorials to install Uplay both didn't work. Yours did ❤
Gonna try this.
Thank You Very Much! 👍❤💪
Thank you very much. It’s work’s 👍
Welcome. Glad it worked for ya
What do you use for extracting the files? I'm having a hard time.
so greatfull i found this video 😁
Great vid thank you
Thanks for the non BS direct tutorial!
Great video liked, subscribed and commented
Thanks! May I ask, what is the name of this onscreen-keyboard?
Hey great tutorial, how can i set the games to download in my external sd card?
Thank you sir
Thank you , I have installed Amazon games and epic launcher , I downloaded some games but is there a way to show my downloaded games from my launchers on the steam deck library like a normal game? Thanks
This video helped me out tremendously, finally got Epic games on my deck. Thanks.
How did you get yours to work?
@@vivorum I just clicked the link in his bio and followed the steps and I downloaded Epic, Battlenet, Hulu, Netflix and Xbox game pass and had no problem getting them to run.
So epic games does run?
@@xXDarthKushGoonerXx yes, it pulled up and let my sign into my account with out any problems.
Gonna try this
I’m assuming you use experimental for gog as well?? Thank you so much!
Thanks for the tutorial! Is this now the best way to have nonsteam games vs heroic launcher?
I personally dont like to use heroic or lutris that much on the deck. They are fine but i prefer this method over those. Even better tho for me is I prefer to do each of the launcher installs myself manually.
