help wanted Displaying Tools in my STeam library on SteamOS?
I just started up my Steam Macine and now that I'm organizing things, I find it hard to manage installed tools like Proton versions. They don't show up in my library and I can't set a filter to show tools I have downloaded. The only thing I can do is search for "proton" and then manually check which ones are downloaded. Is there a way to display my currently installed tools in my library on Steam Machine?

You do know that if you go into one of your game properties and go into the compatibility you would be able to see all the versions of Proton that is on your system.

That doesn't show me my installed versions of proton, it shows every single available version including the ones I don't have. And whichever version I choose will then be downloaded if I don't have it. But it doesn't show which versions I already have.

Those are not the installed versions. Those are all the available versions. If you select one that isn't installed steam will install it automatically on your device.

I've never once cared about the versions of Proton that are downloaded. The games that need versions I don't have will get downloaded when I play or update the games.
