The same issue. Boots after the "disable decky".
Seems like decky loader issue. Btw I didn't even install any plugins, just decky-loader on the window which appears right after the installation
Had the same issue last night. After that my PC would not boot anymore. I had a black screen.
In order to fix the issue I started manually the desktop env to delete the steamapps folder. It took me two hours to get all my non-steam games saves back. Really anoying :/
Probably just uninstalling the decky would be a temporal fix... But I can't find what is the proper way do this on bazzite (ujust don't have any pre-configured script).
Update decky to fix it
But how if decky broken and the only way to boot is disabling it?
Maybe it would be a good idea to include the decky update to the standard update script, because now it seems separated
When you're on the error screen you can always switch to command mode with CTRL + Alt + F3 (or F2 to F6 depending on some machines). From there you can update decky and reboot.
Do you know how to manually update it from command line on bazzite? I installed it simply by checkbox (probably it exec some ujust command). But i have no idea where and how it installs...
sure just run: curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/releases/latest/download/install_release.sh | sh
well on Bazzite..
maybe not ?
...on the error message screenshot you posted, there's a button that says
Disable Decky until next boot
as for updating decky via terminal, ujust setup-deckyeven easier
Thank you!
Is there any way to correctly remove it? Or should I follow github instructions?
oh, do you want to completely remove decky? or update it?
you can run
ujust setup-decky to update to the latest version of decky
you don't need to uninstall + reinstall
if you want to completely remove it, that's a different processFor now just update, but if such bugs will continue happening I would like to remove it at all probably. So, i want to know what is the correct way 🙂
correct way would probably be to uninstall it from the decky menu
unofficial alternative is to force remove the
plugin_loader systemd service, then delete the $HOME/homebrew folder@Aru as i can see the official uninstall script do something more or less like this. Is there some hidden mistake if I will just use it?

looks fine to me
if it's their unofficial install script, it should work fine
It's official one, from the GitHub readme
I just installed a new version of decky without installing the old one. It seems to work now😳
AFAIK it should overwrite the old version. So I don’t think you have the old one hanging around!
Updating decky by getting to the update very quickly and starting it before the crash has solved it to me.
