Updating Proton GE on your Steam Deck is like giving it a little spa day; gotta keep it fresh! First, you wanna head over to the 'Desktop Mode' on your Deck. Open up the trusty Discover Store app, search for 'ProtonUp-Qt', and install it if you haven't already. Launch ProtonUp-Qt, find Proton-GE in the list, and hit that update button if it's available. Voila! Your Steam Deck is now ready to run games smoother than ever.
