Booted Windows 10 pro to a 1tb SD card, only took 30g of space and left 970g. Installed GlosC for the controls and runs flawless. If I can do it anyone can do it! Here's Forza 5 on Xbox Cloud testing the controls. Runs smoothly no hiccups or long load times! Aloha 🤙🏽🎮

COD: MW2019 Running beautifully on my new Steam Deck. To accomplish this I installed windows 10 using rufus onto my external ssd, booted into it, and used the GloSC workaround to get the controller to be detected in game. Would totally recommend trying it out.
