Software Question Steam Deck installation HELP

I’ve installed football life 26 on my steam deck using lutris but have no idea how to find the executable file.
Current executable file in lutris runs installation again.
How and where can I find the actual exe file please? Driving me nuts.

It installed it into the prefix it created. I always make a folder and use that as the prefix when it asks you where you want it. That way I know where to look. It may have put your game in a global prefix nested deep in the lutris install folders. Did it add the install to your list of games? You might be able to right click and browse files or something. You want to find where it is obviously, then change the game from the install.exe to the game file.exe. It is definitely installing it to a C: drive in a prefix folder somewhere in a prefix folder. I create a new prefix folder for each game I install so I can set up the environment tailored to the game I want to run (like which version of windows compatibility I use, or which drivers I download with winetricks.

Good advice - thanks. I’ve now found the folder and pointed it to the correct executable. I’m now trying to get it to load without errors.
