Offline Retrying in … Seconds (ignore)
I just downloaded Heroic launcher on my steam deck to play some GOG and Epic Games, only problem is I can’t log in to either of them. The launcher keeps “Retrying” Something tells me Wine or Proton has to do something with this (I don’t know what either of them are btw) please help thank you.

WARING: [Backend] : Failed to Register Protocol with OS
flat-fuchsia•3y ago
wine is a translation layer that converts windows system calls to ones supported by linux. Proton is a gaming centric fork of wine
but in this case this isnt either.
you should post your full logs, and read the readme first thread

the protocol warning is normal, you can ignore it
looks like for some reason heroic's backend can't connect to the internet (we've seen that when the internet provider blocks/limits access to some urls)
a user reported that changing the DNS servers for the connection to use Google's (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) fixed it, but also some users reported it didn't
if you open any of the Stores the message should go away but you might have issues
wine/proton has nothing to do with the connectivity problem
