The screenshot is what happens. The highlighted border means the dropdown is active. This is a bug, because it should be showing both version. If only one version is available, then it wouldn’t show the version dropdown at all.
Comment on Can't avoid native Linux version from GOG with Heroic on Steam Deck

What happens when you click on the drop-down menu to select the version? I’ve had issues in the past with Heroic where the drop-down menus would only work in desktop mode on the Steam Deck, FWIW.

Ah, good catch. In that case, I’ve hit this bug before, although usually when trying to select a different version of Proton afterwards, and I managed to get the drop-down working in Desktop mode.
If OP is already in Desktop mode, then I’m not sure tbh._cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
oh that’s a good point, I didn’t consider that game mode might be causing the problem. I guess I always install from desktop mode anyway, so I obviously never ran into problems with heroic in game mode.

That was it! Thanks
In game mode, clicking on the list would only show me the Linux version.
In desktop mode it allowed me to select the Windows version 👍

Glad you were able to get it working!
I need to get around to creating a bug report, I’m guessing the issue is with gamescope and not Heroic itself, but I’m not sure.

I’ve created it on GitHub: github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/…/4890
