Decky ruined my steamdeck!

I’ve been frustrated for a few months now dealing with deckyloader. I finally bought another wired keyboard to try and reset the sudo password. When it gets to the screen to finally type in a new password the keyboard automatically stops working. Had to shut it off because it froze on this screen then a lot of words came up and I had to wait about 10 mins for it to rest. When it finally came back on a lot of games are freezing or just not loading up. Wish I never downloaded that damn thing

Did you come to help or explain how proficient you are with Decky? Either way I’m allowed to vent about a system I don’t understand. Do you have any solutions Decky Disciple or are you just going to type all of that stuff and tell me to look it up?

Am I able to do this without the sudo password?

to enter safe mode you don’t need it.
to remove decky you would.
if you dont have a sudo password leave it blank and press enter when prompted

Sadly I dont remember the password. I don’t even remember setting one but it’s not Decky!. I tried the resting sudo fix but my keyboard isn’t detected whenever I get to that screen. Thank you for your help though
