I can confirm I just used the newest version on their website because I didn't read the comments first... thankfully their most recent version based on the github was released 3 days ago. I believe they fixed the problem. Everything cloned successfully. I installed my new SSD, powered on and got worried at first because loading took a minute and it went to the original setup and login screen like a factory restore. Chose English and my time zone, logged into my account and everything is perfectly as I left it. I do have to redo settings and some things, it's almost as if it's a fresh install, yet all my games are installed and working (I've only tested elden ring so far). All my video files I've saved etc are there in desktop mode. All good! 👍 Thank you for the guide! 😊 Edit: Also, decky is installed and all my decky settings/ui changes that I've noticed are intact as well.

The issues isn’t decky at all. its people installing steamOS beta releases and then wondering why they run into issues. People need to actually learn what beta actually means.
