It might be easier to just find another windows device to do the job tho
Yeah, I think that's what I'll need to do. I found a guide here detailing how to decrypt a bitlocker encrypted drive, I'll give that a go when I'm able to borrow a windows machine
Also, if you dont wanna install gparted
I want to, but the steam deck isn't having it. It's arch based, so need to use pacman, but that just gives an error when I try
Having a look around on that link, when I try to download DART, I'm asked to log in with a work or school account, personal ones aren't allowed. It also sounds like it needs a subscription. So, not sure if this will work for me, or if I just clicked the wrong thing.
I did find an article here that details how to decrypt a drive that's been encrypted with bitlocker, do you think that would work?
Is the disk encrypted? If so, do you have the key?
I believe it is encrypted, but I was able to get the key from my Microsoft account
you may need to make a DART disk + computer + encryption key to get at your data
I'll have to have a proper look into that, I've never done anything like that before. Thank you for the suggestion!
Ok, there's an entry in my Microsoft account for bitlocker for my laptop, and I can see the recovery key. How do I use it to decrypt the drive though?
gparted isn't preinstalled, unfortunately. But when I use the command lsusb
, I do see an entry for NVME adapter so it is recognising it
I don't know if it was encrypted. I don't think I set it to be, does windows do it automatically?
Do you have the recovery key for your drive?
Where would I find that? It's the drive that came with the laptop
I don't think I turned on encryption, unless it's on by default in windows 10?
Where did you expect it to pop up
I expected it to show up under external devices on the steam deck
does the same work with other drives or usb sticks?
Unfortunately I don't have any others that I can try with
What type of SSD was in your laptop?
It's a 1T M.2 PCIe SSD
Whats the model name of the enclosure/adapter you are using
It's a FIDECO M.2 NVMe Enclosure
Was your laptop running windows?
Yes, it was running Windows 10
This is the laptop, if that helps: Link

Taking a laptop's SSD and making it an external drive
Recently my laptop died. Thankfully, the issue wasn't the SSD. So I bought an external enclosure, took the SSD out of the laptop, and popped it into the external enclosure. I was hoping at that point, it would "just work".
I was hoping that when I plug it into my steam deck in desktop mode, it would recognise it and I could get some files off of it. Well, just one file really, my Sims 4 save. But it isn't recognised at all.
Is there anything I can do to get the save file off of the SSD? I can borrow someone else's (windows) laptop if necessary, though it didn't recognise it last time I plugged it in there either.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Yes! I followed the instructions on there and the game started, but crashed pretty soon after

Blue Dragon (Xbox 360) via emuDeck
Hi there! Has anyone had any success emulating Blue Dragon using emuDeck? I'm currently trying to get it to work but not having any luck.
I've tried changing some of the config files to use settings I found online, but they don't seem to work. I also found a thread on Reddit that mentioned downloading an older version of Xenia, but that post was from 2 years ago, so I'm not sure if that is still necessary.
If anyone was able to get Blue Dragon to run properly on the deck I'd be very interested in hearing how you did it!
Awesome!
This looks quite cool, I'll have to check it out! Does it support the steam deck?
That's capitalisation. Capitalism is a philosophical view that the universe is solely based on randomness
But it says Sony PlayStation on it
Oof
Did he eat the guy afterwards?

Article summary not working


Whenever I see an article in a post, and try using the sync ultra feature to summarise it, it always just says "No summary found". Does this work for anyone else?

TCG Pocket: Lapras ex
Has anyone managed to get a Lapras ex from the event? I'm currently at 6 Butterfree, 4 Pikachu, 10 Clefairy, and 5 Mankey, but no Lapras. I'm wondering if it's even possible or if I'm just really unlucky. What has your experience been?

Open accounts in separate app window
Similar to how you can long press a community and open it in a new window, can we get the ability to do the same with accounts on the account list? Would be handy for switching between accounts on different instances etc.
