Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Epic Store version, doesn't ask for credentials, stuck logging in anyway
Hello, everybody! I accidentally deleted the message from the previous post, so I'm posting again, sorry. I promise I tried to solve this on my own before posting so not to waste anybody's time, so thank you very much in advance for any assistance!
Ubisoft Connect launches when I click play, but never asks for my Ubisoft credentials. Instead, it just shows the message "logging in" indefinitely and nothing happens because, of course, it can't login without the credentials. I already tried all the suggested workarounds in the fixed post, but they don't change anything. I guess because they're actually meant to just launch Ubisoft Connect before the game, not to fix any problems within Ubisoft Connect itself. I also already installed all dependencies, like the fixed post instructed. Other games from Epic Store run with no issues.
The log from my latest try is attached.

Wine-GE is rather old now (last release is almost a year ago) and thus might not work correctly. Please follow these instructions on using GE-Proton:
1. Head to the Wine Manager in Heroic, click the "Proton-GE" tab, and install "Proton-GE-Latest"
2. Head to the settings for your game(s) (icon on game card in library). In the "Wine Version" dropdown, select "Proton - Proton-GE-latest"
3. Rename your Wineprefix (path is shown in game settings), e.g. from
current-name to current-name_bak. To clarify: Rename the actual folder on your hard drive, do not change the option in the game settings.
Note: This will make game-specific configuration data (e.g. in-game settings or save files) unavailable. If this is an issue, let us know & we'll help you restore them.
