I’m facing a similar issue, when I’m executing steam-native
. Executing steam-runtime
works though, but from the library it seems that titles running with Proton are not able to launch.
I haven’t figured out yet, if these are two symptoms of the same problem.
Exact same issue here. Client update broke the native app.
In case you haven’t found a solution yet, a Collabra engineer posted a few possible workarounds on Gitlab (post here). The only thing that worked for me was using steam --reset
, which is mentioned by other users on the same ticket. If I tick “Remember password” and restart Steam, it happens again. But as long as I’m not doing that, I’m now able to log in every time.
i have removed the native steam installation, installed the flatpack version. unchecked the remember password, because you never know. ( lost my entire library, the instructions to use the old one did not work ) Looks mostly stable, had a couple of crashes in a week, which is much better than mostly not working. i will go like that.
