Same happened after the most recent steam client update. Not the first time that a steam client update breaks decky, so a suggestion here will be to hold on to these updates until decky is updated first to accommodate.

This is happening to me too. DeckyLoader v3.2.0 and with the latest SteamOS, when open a game properties it crashes the UI.

Note: It turns out, the problem comes from CheatDeck plugin for me.

Solution: Install the latest version of that plugin.

Same problem manually removing plugins one by one hoping it works lol on the most recent decky update

^ fixed by wiping deckyloader and reinstalling the "prerelease" version. Just be sure to make a backup of your plugins and or configuration (if you want)

I believe there are tons incompatible plugins as of right now that will not work until updated.

Isolated one possible issue to the FriendsFix plugin.

I had to completely uninstall and reinstall Decky.

Two of my plugins seem to be causing issues: TabMaster and How Long to Beat. Whenever I reinstall any of these two, I get SteamUI errors and Decky crashes.

Works okay without these two plugins.

Any new updates? Decky is still not loading.
