Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

sign up to Steam Client Beta.
when I sign in I expect my name to show on the top right of the Elite Dangerous launcher.
I get a sign-in window that fails with both Steam and Elite Dangerous user names and passwords.

Exit Steam Client Beta and try again and it works.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Opt in to Steam Beta
  2. Enable Proton for Elite Dangerous and then follow the guide at https://github.com/redmcg/wine/wiki for installing missing dependencies
  3. Elite Dangerous expects me to sign-in

sorry I'm not sure what else to add.

Hello @DickThomas, we're tracking issues with games run with Proton in the Proton issue tracker. Additionally, we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/150#issuecomment-547878623.
