Tried to install Emudeck. The install seemingly didn’t work although I dont know why, as first I have to re-execute the application from the files everytime I want to load the menu, which although I’m not familiar with Linux, no other app on my steam deck requires to I’m assuming is a glitch of some kind. On top of this the steam rom loader refuses to launch and doesn’t appear to exist anywhere in my filss, despite emudeck being convinced I’ve already installed it.
So I assumed it was an install issue and decided to delete and then reinstall emudeck… to which everytime it loafs up the exact same data and doesn’t actually reset emudeck despite me attempting to delete the files off my steamdeck… the exact same issues where present and seemingly nothing I can do will reset emudeck so I can just try again and avoid whatever issue caused it to act like a buggy mess.
I haven’t found anyone with this exact issue, and all fixes for similar issues just didn’t work or wherent applicable. Is there any easy fix for this?
Because I swear to god I get why people bully Linux users now, I just need an easy fix to get this thing to run properly. At this point downloading each emulator seperately is just the more convenient option.
Did you follow a guide on how to uninstall Emudeck? Maybe you did something wrong.
How to uninstall: Inside Emudeck at the bottom should be an option called “Uninstall”. Click on that and it should uninstall.
If that doesn’t work go to this link: https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck/blob/main/uninstall.sh And download the “uninstall.sh”. This is Emudeck’s github.
In Desktop mode: drag the file from your Downloads folder to your Desktop. Double-click it. This script should ask you what you want to uninstall, type Y or N to anything that applies. Done.
What you downloaded previously was a script that installed Emudeck. This script here just uninstalls it. I don’t know if you know what sh script are in Linux. But you probably don’t care about me explaining it to you right now.
If that doesn’t fix it, let me know.
(How did you try to uninstall Emudeck before? Did you just delete the Desktop icon or something?)
