Bazzite Decktop
Everything was going great did an update and now cannot install games. Click install and it just does nothing. Yesterday checked the internet under settings and had it popup saying cannot connect retry in xx seconds. I then rebooted still cannot install, I installed new bazzite fresh same problem & also installed the first bazzite I installed before and same issue.
I can install in desktop mode but not in game mode. Was working great now I can only game in desktop mode.

Same symptoms here as well, all games install fine in desktop mode but in game mode a lot of games do not respond to the install button press (makes the button pressed sound effect but the button does not change and the game does not get added to the download queue) the same results can be found on affected games by pressing the options button in the library screen and selecting install. Not all games are affected but the majority of my library is ( I have 900 plus games)

Thanks for the info I did a desktop install because of the issue. But I am playing on PC so makes it easier to do other things anyways.
