Log: steam-6980.log

Symptoms

I try to launch the game, but it just changes to "playing" and nothing happens. I'm able to stop the game from Steam.

Considerations

I saw that https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/586 tries to whitelist the game as playable, but I can't play at the moment.

Many report here: https://www.protondb.com/app/6980 that the game is playable.

I tried installing Sneaky Update but I found another issue, with the installer itself. When trying to execute the installer either with:

wine Setup_T3SneakyUpgrade_Full_1.1.10.exe

or

STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam" STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH=/mnt/spare/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/6980/ ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Proton\ -\ Experimental/proton run Setup_T3SneakyUpgrade_Full_1.1.10.exe

(as suggested here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2163910408), it always yields: "Thief 3 registry not found. Please reinstall the game.".
