Steam Deck: Steam EA Games EMERGENCY Fix (with backup instructions)

Another day and another EA App launcher failure on Steam Deck.

This video will show you how to restore your games to operating order quickly – but more importantly, will show you how to find and backup your saves that are destroyed every time you have to do this “Emergency Fix”.

Note: This is for people who own EA games that were purchased and LAUNCH from Steam. If you are using the “stand alone” EA App as a non-steam game, we’ll discuss your fix – but it isn’t directly included here.
