[Linux/SteamDeck][Beta-Fix] Crashing on startup ... fixed
Looks like MSFS no longer runs with Linux and/or Steam Deck. Applying the normal patches with:

$ protontricks 1250410 dotnet472

and applying Steam Launch options:

PROTON_USE_DXVK=1 -FastLaunch

do not work anymore. Here with fresh new install its the same. Maybe changing the Proton Windows version or installing newer .Net version helps. I did not try, but maybe someone else got it run again ?!

-- edit --

[BETA-FIX] I found a temporary fix. Install latest "bleeding-edge" Proton Experimental version and it should start again. Looks like Valve patches Proton. Happy flying :LIS_butterfly:

You're choosing to run a Microsoft game outside of it's native Microsoft operating system, then blaming Microsoft for it?

Same finding on my Steam Deck as well. SU11 beta worked great right up until launch day. Now it no longer starts at all. Glad I'm not alone. I'm sure it will be fixed in a future patch or proton update.

Did you akk try SAFE MODE or Renaming Community Folder? Mine would not run with Add-Ons for first 2 tries on WINDOWS 10. I found this odd but I normally would choose to do that regardless.

It was a complete fresh install.
