In my example, I do not have an issue.

[Bloodyrain989]

Like my steam deck has Firefox there ready to download why can’t it just download :(

[Bloodyrain989]

I have no idea how to copy and paste from steam deck to phone

[deaddoof]

Can you show the error log? I am not psychic. Copy and paste the error into the steam forum.

[deaddoof]

Phone? Can you open steam client in desktop mode ?

[Bloodyrain989]

I just typed in the first one into konsole but before it I typed install and it says nonstick file or directory

[Bloodyrain989]

I’m in desktop mode I have internet connected but no browser

[Bloodyrain989]

No way to post on forums

[Bloodyrain989]

Going to bed trying again tm after work

I couldn't figure out how to get a custom image to steam cloud. I annotated a screen show to show how to start the steam client in desktop mode. Right trigger click the steam icon.

[Mahjik]

The Steam Client is automatically running on the Desktop. It has a browser built in so you can open the forums inside the Desktop Steam Client. No external browser required to post the error message.

Это не так сложно как кажется.

Hey, we're trying. But I would like it to be a little more sugarcoated
