I have no idea about other older games but this is the case for Ghost Recon Breakpoint.

    Thanks a ton! I was scratching my head trying to figure out what was going wrong. Your simple and easy solution was just what I needed! I was trying to get AC Origins to run and was amazed (surprised) that it was using Uplay to facilitate its launch when I know that Ubisoft Connect had already released by 2017, the year the game came out. Once more, thanks to your video, I was able to mitigate my issue. I already own AC Origins on console, but the opportunity to buy it again on my Steam Deck was too good to pass up.

    Works for me, thanks for the awesome fix. Just a note on an issue I ran into (and solved): when the Ubisoft Connect login screen pops up following launching the game, I was unable to access the keyboard - and therefore couldn’t enter any text into the email & password fields. Keyboard shortcut wouldn't work. I eventually got around this buy pairing my phone with my deck using KDE Connect, and using my phone as a remote keyboard. Hope this helps anyone else that runs into this problem.
