Nice tutorial❤When i get hands on my pc i will try to make mine, it require messing with registry so steam starts automatically in bp. Ps. You still need to type explorer.exe in task manager if u want to acess desktop bcs i didnt figure out that part yet😂

well rather i should say launch box and big box

Thank you for this. So if I wanted to boot Playnite first, I would also add that directory to the first line? Instead of Steam?

I went over that in the original video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nmalmbKIacrJlZM.htmlsi=ErtHT8NTpNY39CwT This was a sequel video for the people who wanted launchers besides playnite.

I really like this and tried it but there's a couple of things. Is it possible to use --hidesplashscreen for playnite's boot? Also, this change conflicts with handheld companion since if loads before explorer. I assume I just need to add HC's executable after the playnite.exe in the startup script?

Yeah, I noticed that issue too. So, I'm working on an updated version of this mod that launches playnite without the splash screen and has support for boot movies. Also, yeah I would recommend adding start "path to handheld companion" to the playnite script so handheld companion starts sooner.

So I uninstalled playnite without running the 3rd script and now my steam deck boots to a black screen, do you know how to fix this?

Ok, so to fix this it has windows running but you have to reactivate the launcher basically, what I did was hook up an external keyboard and typed crt alt del then opened task manager. Click run new task and run notepad, then run explorer. Open notepad and create the third script then save it as playnite.bat then use explorer to find bat to exe convert it then use explorer to run new file and it's fixed

So, I did this and got it to work, but when I try to close down steam, it just relaunches. Is there a way to stop this?

If you "Exit Big Picture Mode" it will relaunch Steam in desktop mode. If you select "Exit Steam", Steam will close completely. However, it you are relying on Steam input for your Steam Deck, closing Steam can cause issues.

Hii, a thousand apologies for bothering you, in my case it didn't work (I did everything wrong :p) I solved it with script 3 but now during initialization on the login screen the screen flashes, as if it were trying to open something, any suggestions on how to fix it? Thanks, and rly sry for bothering u

I can still use the desktop right?

Yes, you should still be able to use the windows desktop. In fact, I am working on a new mod that is easier to install and allows you to have a boot movie. Still working the bugs out but I am hoping to release a proper video on it soon.

Sorry, thanks for letting me know. I just updated the description. 😃

I don't suggest following this script. Kind of bricks your operating system. Even after deleting the script from playnight my taskbar doesn't automatically come up. I have to completely reinstall windows now... Thanks.

@DDecaf

You don't need to reinstall windows, just save the removal script from the description as a .bat file and run it as administrator. Then restart... @echo off reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon" /v Shell /t REG_SZ /d "explorer.exe" /f timeout /t 1 start explorer.exe exit

Thanks, now my PC is just a black screen, and i can't open NOTHING related to Windows

No worries, I get it. Also, thanks!

major issue is needing playnite. you might be able to swap playnite with another application.

Actually, you can only run bios before windows. What you do is starting the problem before the explorer.exe which is windows' gui.

Would you help me? I need a script to make playnite when opening using the ps5 boot video. I saw several videos on KZread but no user wanted to share how it is done. Example: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zpt2ms2ef9GZZco.html I followed your tutorial and I got it, thank you very much, I've already subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to the next videos.

I've been hard at work on a new version of that mod. I just released the tutorial today! It doesn't use playnite at all to start steam and has support for boot movies: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oGmDt5iknbi2Z5s.html
