I dont know why you believe entering desktop mode is necessary. It's not. I install any game, for example Pathfinder in game mode. I go to properties and enable Aurora launcher for this game. I launch it -> games & Aurora launches -> done.

Entering desktop mode is only necessary for a) Aurora launcher installation and b) if Aurora is not accessible in game mode.

And about mobile device you say its possible but not "100% of the time". Which I dont know what you mean. In which cases its not possible? Where does it stuck? What does it do and what it does it not do?

So I’ve been messing with this for a few days now. I’ve finally gotten it to boot to were I could actually move around in Aurora after the games launches. But the issue I am having now is I’m unable to select anything. I’ve tried all the options forcing to the front and focus, but I don’t get a mouse option. The only thing that comes up is the page slider (up and down, left and right) or it pulls up the keyboard and the controller config with Aurora trapped behind it.

If your stuck on this make sure you got developer mode enabled in Steamdeck. Next try and launch the game in window mode (if that doesnt work try desktop mode)

I remembered to have it in developer mode, windowed mode didn’t work for me. IT semi worked in Desktop mode where I could move around in Aurora for about 30 secs then I would lose input.

However the strange work around I found was to have the mobile app try to force an auto connection to start the trainer and enable things from there. But I know that this way isn’t the most ideal.

Try it on desktop mode again, when the game opens in fullscreen mode press alt+enter that will change the game into windowed. Also which game are you using?

Nice job on the Steam Deck tool 0x90. I tried running the epic store on it and it makes it so easy to run! Only issue I'm running into is the Epic its detecting in the aurora launcher has the target folders set to ubisoft's. Oh well, I got some many variations of stores in my steam I'm sure that messed it up somewhere.

Thanks, the launcher expects Epic and UPlay to be installed separately as two different non-steam games. If you installed them as a single non-steam-game like with NonSteamLaunchers the Aurora launcher detects it as Uplay only.
