![]() ![]() I think Valve is well within their right not to support Windows, that's Microsoft's job if they want to enable Windows on the Steam Deck. Microsoft has a very sorid past and their present tactics are still questionable/wearisome. I don't suspect you've been reading news since 2005. I doesn't even cover some of Microsoft's other tactics which didn't make front page news. If in doubt, here's a small YT history lesson summary of their headline making tactics. Plus if you have the storage, you can backup your downloaded copies.īut back to Microsoft.

"Windows isn't supported" doesn't seem to mean what you think it means. This will ship alongside SteamOS 3 once it's complete. The demand was that he should stay an extra 1.5 h.While Steam Deck is fully capable of dual-boot, the SteamOS installer that provides a dual-boot wizard isn't ready yet.
