PSA - If your Steam Deck or Steam on Linux has started failing to download or launch Proton games, you may have caught a bad config from Valve's servers.

We believe the problem is fixed now, but you need to delete a cache file locally (`~/.steam/steam/userdata/<steamid>/config/compat.vdf` where <steamid> is your id).

See github.com/ValveSoftware/steam for details.

I've tried walking average users through deleting a file in a hidden directory before. It might be quicker to just have them factory-reset their Steam Decks
