# proton-ge-manager

A simple script to manage Proton-GE releases on your system. Simplifies the process of downloading, installing, and removing Proton-GE releases.

> This utility is only compatible with Proton-GE releases from GloriousEggroll's GitHub

> repository, and with the standard directory structure used by Steam across different

> platforms (Steam Deck, Native installation, Flatpak, and Snap).

## Simple usage

> [!NOTE]

> The endpoint used in the following examples is a simple API that provides the latest

> script version. You can see the endpoint source code [here](https://github.com/pebeto/pebeto.github.io/blob/master/app/api/pgm/%5Btype%5D/route.tsx)

- Steam Deck

    ```bash

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://pebeto.github.io/api/pgm/steamdeck) -l"

    ```

- Steam (Native)

    ```bash

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://pebeto.github.io/api/pgm/native) -l"

    ```

- Steam (Flatpak)

    ```bash

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://pebeto.github.io/api/pgm/flatpak) -l"

    ```

- Steam (Snap)

    ```bash

    sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://pebeto.github.io/api/pgm/snap) -l"

    ```

After the process is complete, you will be able to use the latest version of Proton-GE in your Steam client. To do so, open (restart) the Steam client, right-click on a game, select **Properties**, go to the **Compatibility** tab, and select the downloaded version of Proton-GE from the dropdown menu.

In case of using the Steam Deck, switch back to Gaming Mode to apply the changes.
