launching a game through steam just opens heroic

Launching any "heroic" game through steam just launches heroic and closing the game through steam closes heroic I use the lts portable x64 version of heroic this is what the "launch option" has: --no-gui "heroic://launch/legendary/bc2c95c6ff564a16b26644f1d3ac3c55" and this is what the log says when I try to launch a game through steam while heroic is closed:

I use the lts portable x64 version of heroic
That's fun considering there is no LTS version of Heroic. I assume this was supposed to say "latest"?

Upload the file itself, not just the text inside. Please don't try to differentiate between important/unnecessary log messages; if you'd know what to look for in the log file, you'd be able to solve the issue yourself

This log doesn't mention anything about launching games, are you sure this is the right one? You might want to try moving/deleting all logs in the folder, launching your game from Steam & then sending all newly created log files into this channel

that is what I did and when I started bioshock from the launcher, the log said that also, when I launch bioshock(as an example), the launcher hides itself in the tray, waits for a few seconds, and then comes back even though bioshock launched successfully and also, I installed heroic and now it works but the portable version still has that issue sorry for trouble
