Hi PunchBro, i am already at Windows start up, but during connection for wifi, i dont see the option of "I DONT HAVE INTERNET" it just says you need to connect to an internet to continue with windows set up. What to do? Thank you and great video!

Just discovered this channel. It's SO NICE to see a steam deck video that isn't drawn out. Short and sweet, just the way it should be. Thank you!

Dude this is honestly the best tutorial I've come across. Others just drag too much bullshit in between but yours got me all set up and ready. Just wish steam would officially release steam deck remapping support for windows and the deck would be absolutely complete for me.

Thanks for the video. Every other video you needed a USB stick, a docking hub. I didn't want to get the dock because am only gonna use it has a handheld

Just a warning for the latest build of Windows 11 22H2, the audio driver provided by Steam (audio driver 1) appears to blue screen Windows and doesn't install correctly. I suppose we'll have to wait for that to be fixed if you want to use it on the latest version of Windows 11. All the other drivers seemed to work fine. Windows 11 22H2 is the only option available for downloading on Microsoft's Windows 11 page currently as it just released today.

and why does it say 32gb or storage when i have a 256gb micro sd card? How do i get that storage back?

[ClumsyCarton]

That is way better than my entire game consoles 😂❤

[UpToDate]

how do you free up storage on the micro sd card?

[charlyschumacher]

I can’t download the windows media properly so I’m stuck on phase 1

Hey PunchBro, I have an steamdeck with Dualboot in the SSD, but I have found my self using windows mostly, do you think this method would work to erase the partitioned SSD into only booting windows?

[FarumanPrime]

Hello I just want to ask that does the video teach how to install windows on my steam deck 512ssd storage.
Cause others video am seeing online makes my internal storage disappear after installing windows

if you want to get past the network thing and shift 10 dont work just type loads of random email address is and should let you skip or use rufus and that will let you do it also. Or just use your network then create a new local user account and delete your microsoft one

I tried using windows to run straight off ssd like other guides show and it absolutely just doesn’t work. Using high end Sandisk micro sd that’s over spec and games start to open but never launches things freeze and take forever
