How to refresh list of Non-Steam games in gaming mode?
I used Heroic Launcher to add a game to Steam, but it would not appear until I rebooted.

Is there a way to refresh the list of games in Non-Steam without rebooting?

Thanks, T

Switch to desktop mode and back (which also restarts the steam client).

Wouldn't just restarting the Steam Client be sufficient?

Yes, that works, but it takes a long time.

How do you do that in gaming mode? Desktop mode?

IIRC, you have a "Restart Steam" option in the Power Menu.

I don't see that option. There is 'Restart', but that reboots the device.

Using the Steam button, then Power... I have a Restart Steam option (Stable branch).

Are you using plugins? This is all I see in stable:

I have Decky installed but not using PowerTools. Do you have Developer Mode enabled?

Turning on Developer Mode makes the option appear. Thanks!
