The new Epic Games Launcher (v2) stores its data in ~/.local/share/com.epicgames.eglv2 and runs all Windows games with a single Proton runtime pinned by Epic (compat/runtime/<version>).

  • Add the runtime directory as install location
  • Mark the pinned runtime as global and count the installed Windows games using it; only list folders containing a Proton runtime
  • Show installed games (title, runtime, install location, platform) in the game list dialog, double-click opens the game prefix
  • Disable "Add version", as the launcher ignores and removes runtimes other than the pinned one
