I recently got the Deck and installed everything, it went great. However, I apparently made the mistake of updating SteamOS before Decky got an update.

Now I can’t access certain settings and it will give me some error and have to restart.

Do I just have to wait until Decky gets an update or.. having to reinstall?

EDIT: for anyone wondering, it was CheatDeck that kept crashing DeckyLoader. Manually update the plugin and everything will work fine again.

Don’t think I have that installed. The plugins I have installed are;

  • EmuDeck
  • SteamGridDB
  • CheatDeck
  • CSS loader
  • PlayTime
  • PauseGames*

Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling?

Also, perhaps just checking for updates? When I checked for updates I could see that there was a new update for decky loader but at that point I had decided to uninstall it anyway to prevent future problems.

Haven’t tried reinstalling yet but I have tried;

  • Changing from stable to pre-release and back to stable (since it didn’t change anything).
  • Checking for updates but already was on the latest (3.20).

Don’t think I’ll reinstall because it would mean also reinstalling the plugins (bit lazy for that). I’ll probably wait it out until there’s an update.

Uninstalling allowed grub to boot Bazzite normally with no errors for me so right now that's maybe the best we can hope for. I also don't want to re-install all my plugins.
