I'm positively surprised that this works.
That will make installing old games so much easier on my Steam Deck. Thanks!
No problem! I've used this trick to run non-game Windows apps on the Steam Deck too, though support can vary wildly.
As an alternative, you might also check Lutris, which employs user scripts for installing and running Windows software in Linux. You can even add them to Steam so they'll work in the Steam Deck's gaming mode:
