I normally don't leave comments but this time I had to. It took me a minute because of my own mistake but if you pause it at around 2:53 seconds and copy or type in exactly what he did and it will work like I said it took me a minute but I finally got it! There were some areas where I had two dashes instead of one missing a period a misspelled word go through it with the fine tooth comb and you will find your error and be able to play.
Cheers, I'll get it changed. Whatever is in the video is always gonna be right. You shouldn't need to change that though it's already there, you're just adding the line that pops on screen to the end of what's there
It worked! Make it match his notepad, not the description. The description has extra -. Also, retype all the quotations as they are curvy, not straight, in the description.
You’re not alone!!!! For some reason I don’t see it on the Add Non Steam Game section nor do I see it on his screen either. How am I supposed to add it as a program?
Yeah im not having any luck either but this has been hard for me to manage tbh. I'm sure there may be something wrong going on with my inputs or something on my end that I can't quite figure out.
I get a page saying "hmmm...can't reach this page" when running it from library. Can you maybe post an update, since it has changed with the new OLEDs much appreciated
have the oled copy the notepad type it in and it'll work. only problem I had was I subscribed to pc game pass, took a while to figure out but go with unlimited because if you get the base one it kept telling me I had to go unlimited to play and its smooth with cloud play.
Unfortunately doesn’t work for me. I can launch Edge via game mode, but then it just open a tab that says: hmmm… can’t reach page. I have changed the “” but still doesn’t manage to find the correct page. It says further that -window-size%3D1024%2C640 server IP address could not be found. What could be wrong?
For anyone who did this and it made you unable to even launch edge anymore, it seems like the launch option command just breaks edge now as it has native steam deck controller support. I dont know if you still have to do the thing in Konsole or not but if yes that's actually all you need to do before you're ready to play.
Retested this today on the latest Steam Deck firmware and it all still works. All I can suggest is that your putting character wrong in the launch options. Make sure you've not made any mistakes with the single dashes and double dashes or the spaces
For those having launch issues, the problem is with the quotation marks in the copied launch options text. Go in and replace all of the “. For some reason it uses a different “ and causes it to fail.
You need quotes at either side. Sometimes when you copy and paste characters in from other sources they're in a different font. He's suggesting deleting the quotes and then typing them back in
@@thegamesapprentice said command is unnecessary now apparently, ik you had to do it before cause I've had to myself. I had to remove edge from non steam game and then add it back again and do nothing to get it working in both desktop & gaming mode. The launch option command you did and used to have to do just makes it not launch at all now.
Yea it was mentioned in another comment. I tried it with and without that though and both worked, so I couldn't figure out what that was actually doing. If you take it out again now you've had it working does it continue to work? All I can think is maybe it's a command you need the first time you launch it perhaps
I don't understand. When i first got my steam deck i accomplished this no problem. Now, there is no edge beta (not sure if you even need it anymore) but I've followed this step by step. I press the play button in steam it acts like its gonna open something then it just highlights the play button green again. I've done this with and without the Konsole command and I've done this setup with the games apprentice loading command and with microsoft's loading command. Nothing is working anymore. Please help! lol
Double check you've got quotes around the loading commands, and that it's exact, no extra spaces or extra hyphons. If that seems fine, then try a different version of Proton. Don't worry about the konsole bit, that's for making the steam deck controller work, so won't affect it launching.
I recently bought a game from the Microsoft store it’s in my library under owned section can I play the game on steam deck or can you just play game pass games on the steam deck?
Please help I did the step to Install edge and then add it to steam under applications At step - Add a non steam game and select Microsoft Edge I don’t see Microsoft edge in that list :(
Worked a treat, signed up a new account, my son can play Fortnite.. btw it’s free to play Fortnite so you can sign up and test everything before paying for a pass.

All this tutorial does is gets it to run via Steam so you can play it in big picture mode and use the steam controls. If you've got Edge installed, just go to the Gamepass website via desktop mode, and try running Gamepass that way. If that won't even load a game then it's probably your connection, as that works out of the box. I've had it happen occasionally where I can see the games but it'll try launch them, but then just spit my back to the Gamepass menu. If that's what you mean is happening, usually just restarting the Steam Deck sorts that
I’m having the same issue it’s not my connection or anything the issue with running it through edge in desktop mode is that it’s gonna make you connect a controller
You can just click on the "continue anyway" button when it mentions a controller in desktop mode. Obviously you can't play it this way, but if the game won't load this way then you know your connection is problem. If it does load this way, then it's most likely one of the characters is wrong in one of the commands
@@thegamesapprentice same issue. tried this and another video. same result unfortunately. it does play pretty great while in desktop mode via ms edge however.
If it's playable via desktop mode with Edge, I'd just double check the commands at 2:45, make sure you copy and paste it from my description rather than hand typing it, as it's so easy to get one of the characters wrong. Then just check to make sure you don't have any extra characters/spaces at the beggining or end.
@@thegamesapprentice can you please please make a guide on how to download Kingdom Hearts 3 on the steam deck and Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5 and kingdom hearts 2.8 a fragment passage I will sub with notifications on can you try and do Kingdom Hearts 3 first ☺️🙂
I did every step precise and 3 times to make sure and im pretty sure game pass doesn’t work on the deck anymore. Any tips or suggestions that can help?
Try reading the other comments, see if your issue has already been addressed, or let me know what's happening and I can direct you to the problematic step
Hey, thanks for the tutorial. I did everything as described, but unfortunately while in gameing mode it will start and directly abort. Any ideas whats the problem?
No matter what I do this doesn't work. Please help. The initial command parses fine. I paste the second command in as suggested. When i go to launch it won't pull the the correct page.
Are you getting the "can't reach this page" error? If so, the problem might be the quote symbols (" "). Try going to the launch options and manually changing the quotes for the URL (after the "--kiosk" parameter) with your onscreen keyboard. I believe copying them from the youtube description messes this up.
So that part is literally just opening up a web page to the game pass page, so should be pretty easy to see what you've done wrong. Launch it in desktop mode, and then you should be able to see the web address. Open up a new tab and type in the web address yourself, or just Google it and click the link. If that works, compare the two web addresses and see what's different
Hi, i have managed to get it to launch however I am not able to sign in as I cannot seem to find a way to get the keyboard to appear in order to input my login details. Any help would be great
link worked a wonder however once loaded carnt use the sytem buttoms or steam buttons and keyboard shortcut doesnt work so i carnt log into my xbox account to use it
Make sure you're running it in game mode not desktop mode. The commands right at the start of the video into the console are for the controls, so retry that step again
Its not detecting a controller for me. I did change the configuration and hit "X" to apply changes. I'm able to scroll games and press "A" to launch them but once launched it acts as though I don't have a controller. Any tips would be appreciated!
I don't know if you've managed to solve this. The only way I was able to recreate it was by skipping the controller configuration step. Once that's set to Gamepad With Mouse Tracking I had no issues with it detecting a controller
And I did both, opened Forza, and neither work. EDIT: Got it working. The problem was I was following the instructions in the video and following them exactly, to a T, including anything that appeared to be case sensitive. The video has it as "edge", whereas the command needs to be "Edge" or it will not work. I see you have that in the description and assume most people who just copied and pasted didn't have that issue. I was manually typing it from the video, though.
I can get it launched, but The steam controls aren't working for me to navigate or control anything. it just gives the error that the controller is not detected
In screen one should come up if you press X. It can be a bit temperamental though. You might be able to connect a keyboard with a USB to USB-C converter (alot of phones come with these). Or you could get a dock, the one I use is in the description
@@thegamesapprentice thanks, but this wasn't working. Had to reboot the Steam Deck. Later I found out I misspelled one word on the konsole, so my controls weren't working
is there a way to increase bandwidth. I remember there being settings for you to like lower quality for low speeds or high quality if you have high speeds.
Don't know what kind of witchcraft this is, but it works. I did it on OLED Deck so if anyone is wondering, yes it works. It takes a little bit for controller to "connect" so just give it like 10 seconds when you're on the Gamepass homepage.
Seems to be more reliable in Gaming mode. If it's still not coming up just restart the deck. It should be just X in desktop mode but it's very hit and miss
Try typing all the commands in by hand rather than copying and pasting, make sure they're exactly as they are on the screen, same spaces, same number of dashes, not getting comas and dashes mixed up.
@@thegamesapprentice I did it manually and copy paste, I tried everything I can think of. Best result I can get is it launches but I can't use the deck controls.
I'm still a small channel so my tutorials come with tech support! Let me know what's happening when you try and launch an Xbox game, or how far you're getting and I'll try and help you troubleshoot it. Maybe start by reading other comments and replies though to see if I've already addressed your issue
You should be able to add it via the usual method of adding stuff to Steam as well. Click on add new game, add non steam game, and then click on the browse button to find it. I use this method in the PlayStation Plus video if you want to see it
Good eye! I think the answer is both. I didn't mean to exclude it in the video,, but I've tried it with and without and can't figure out what that actually does.
If you're referring to the command in konsole, you could try continue without it. I've had some people commenting that's not required in recent versions of proton, I can't confirm if that's right though, but worth a try
Here's a question for you. Got gamepass installed after following your guide, but I live in a country where Xbox does not support cloud gaming. Do you think a VPN will help?
Hello. I have a problem. Gamepass works without lags, but I have a lot of fps drops. games run at 60fps then drops to 35-40fps every few seconds. I have 300 mb internet, connected by etherenet cable to pc and wi fi 5g. any advice? pls
It does not work, Best option is to go to your microsoft edge browser sign in, Yes it does work but, Some games like FPS, The look around right analog don't work and no edge browser controller options to fix it

dude i even paid for $16 for the gamepass i can show u the screenshot and everything and when i sign in they bring me to x box game pass idk man such a waste of time
Make sure you're back in Game Mode, not desktop mode. A few people seem to be making that mistake. If you are, are you just clicking play and nothing is happening?
@@thegamesapprentice I got it working thanks. I got a different script of OhnoitsAlexx and it worked first time so its changed some how? i dunno. Thanks for the reply though!
If you were copying from the command in my description there was a space in there that's not in the video, I've removed it now, could've been that causing the issue. Glad you got it working though
Try it via edge browser through desktop mode. If that works double check the address in the launch options. Make sure quotes, spaces and dashes are all correct
No, if you're using a controller, you don't need this tutorial at all. You could just play it Edge browser from Desktop mode. This tutorial makes it work through big screen mode using the steam deck controls
Peeps seem to be having issues. I just went through the mission and got it to work. If found a thing on a google search says about the last bit for xbox blaa blas with " these" were the problem for me. The script to me looked the same but i replaced it with their example and it worked. Hope that helps 1> person(s)
Yeah, streaming is a big no no. Fix that and then maybe you have someone that finally plays with all big 3 console players. Until then, PS and Nintendo it is (and PC).

If anyone having trouble launching, the code in his description is wrong. Instead of “-arch=x86+64” it is actually “-arch=x86_64”
This fixed it for me

Are those spaces in the command line?
Yea as it's written in the video description
@@thegamesapprentice got it but I don't think cloud gaming works in my region
Don't know what kind of witchcraft this is, but it works. I did it on OLED Deck so if anyone is wondering, yes it works. It takes a little bit for controller to "connect" so just give it like 10 seconds when you're on the Gamepass homepage.
It's the best kind of witchcraft
What is the name of the theme ?
Theme?
@@thegamesapprentice I mean the desktop mode global theme
Seems to not be working anymore
How do I copy/paste or even type in the target or launch options boxes? Steam+x doesn't pull up the keyboard while in steam
Seems to be more reliable in Gaming mode. If it's still not coming up just restart the deck. It should be just X in desktop mode but it's very hit and miss
I give up, I've tried for 4 hours and can't get it to work properly
Try typing all the commands in by hand rather than copying and pasting, make sure they're exactly as they are on the screen, same spaces, same number of dashes, not getting comas and dashes mixed up.
@@thegamesapprentice I did it manually and copy paste, I tried everything I can think of. Best result I can get is it launches but I can't use the deck controls.
Crashing during launch, I copy and pasted everything
Im not sure what to do with my hands
How do I get the keyboard to pop up to sign in to the Xbox portion? It won’t pop up?
It should just be by holding the Steam Button below the dpad, and press X. I've had it a few times where it wouldn't pop up until restarted though
is this for pc game pass or cloud only?
Just Xbox Game Pass, cloud only
Literally none of the tutorials have worked for me
I'm still a small channel so my tutorials come with tech support!
Let me know what's happening when you try and launch an Xbox game, or how far you're getting and I'll try and help you troubleshoot it.
Maybe start by reading other comments and replies though to see if I've already addressed your issue
How do u add edge to steam i try to do it just like u did not work
Just right click it and then select add to Steam
It doesn't let me add it to selected programs
You should be able to add it via the usual method of adding stuff to Steam as well. Click on add new game, add non steam game, and then click on the browse button to find it. I use this method in the PlayStation Plus video if you want to see it
I don't see the @@ signs on the code. Is that a mistake or do you not need them?
Good eye! I think the answer is both. I didn't mean to exclude it in the video,, but I've tried it with and without and can't figure out what that actually does.
This is great!
Every time I try to do the first command it just says that the command Is not there
If you're referring to the command in konsole, you could try continue without it. I've had some people commenting that's not required in recent versions of proton, I can't confirm if that's right though, but worth a try
Followed ALL steps correctly, double checked all codes wnd launch options. DOES NOT WORK
If you've done it all correctly there's nothing really I can advise, maybe get in touch with Microsoft support, this is their official process
Here's a question for you.
Got gamepass installed after following your guide, but I live in a country where Xbox does not support cloud gaming.
Do you think a VPN will help?
I'd imagine that would work, however you might not get a solid enough connection through a VPN to play smoothly
Hello. I have a problem. Gamepass works without lags, but I have a lot of fps drops. games run at 60fps then drops to 35-40fps every few seconds. I have 300 mb internet, connected by etherenet cable to pc and wi fi 5g. any advice? pls
Possibly down to your router. Check out support.xbox.com/en-US/help/games-apps/cloud-gaming/troubleshoot-cloud-gaming-windows
It does not work, Best option is to go to your microsoft edge browser sign in, Yes it does work but, Some games like FPS, The look around right analog don't work and no edge browser controller options to fix it
Not sure what you mean. Have no problems playing FPS games with this method at all
@@thegamesapprentice I understand it works for you. But for me, Ive done everything, cppied and paste all that and xbox game pass just won't run at all😮💨
Is not working 😣
Is there a way to connect with friends for multiplayer? I wanna chat and be able play with a buddy of mine on exoprimal and he has xbox. I can do it with my pc but not sure if its an option with Ultimate
You can definitely connect with friends easy enough. Not sure about voice chat though. Maybe via Discord
Too much hustle. I’m going to get a switch instead.
His commands are all wrong
hey thank you bro
No problem
dude i even paid for $16 for the gamepass i can show u the screenshot and everything and when i sign in they bring me to x box game pass idk man such a waste of time
Sorry I don't understand the issue. You've installed it, signed in and it brings you to xbox gamepass? Sounds fine to me
ok im closer. got it all done but now it wont launch lol
Make sure you're back in Game Mode, not desktop mode. A few people seem to be making that mistake. If you are, are you just clicking play and nothing is happening?
@@thegamesapprentice I got it working thanks. I got a different script of OhnoitsAlexx and it worked first time so its changed some how? i dunno. Thanks for the reply though!
If you were copying from the command in my description there was a space in there that's not in the video, I've removed it now, could've been that causing the issue. Glad you got it working though
Not one comment says this works lmao
Says command not found =/
not launching
when I try it, it says could not reach this page
Try it via edge browser through desktop mode. If that works double check the address in the launch options. Make sure quotes, spaces and dashes are all correct
Do I have to connect a controller for it to work?
No, if you're using a controller, you don't need this tutorial at all. You could just play it Edge browser from Desktop mode. This tutorial makes it work through big screen mode using the steam deck controls
thanks for the add dont work for me unfortunatly
Sorry to hear that, did you manage to sort it? If not, have you checked the other comments see if I've solved the issue already?
Just crashes. Tried 3 times
If it's crashing it'll be a problem with the launch options. Make sure all the characters and spaces are correct.
Xbox: let's make it extremely difficult for users to play our games!
This installs edge browser? How do I play game pass?
Via the edge browser. You can't play PC Gamepass to my knowledge if that's what you're after, just Xbox Game Pass
Can’t I use any other search engine? Edge sucks so badly…
I'm guessing you mean browser. I think it's just Edge for Gamepass
Its only possible trough xcloud? No native gamepass?
Unfortunately just via cloud, yes
Peeps seem to be having issues. I just went through the mission and got it to work. If found a thing on a google search says about the last bit for xbox blaa blas with " these" were the problem for me. The script to me looked the same but i replaced it with their example and it worked. Hope that helps 1> person(s)
not working nothing happens when launchign
Not workingggg
Yeah, streaming is a big no no. Fix that and then maybe you have someone that finally plays with all big 3 console players. Until then, PS and Nintendo it is (and PC).
If it ain't broke
