    Hello,

    I am unable to launch S&Box as it says I am missing the sbox.exe file.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled the game, and have installed it on 2 different hard drives (Main OS drive and game drive).  I have also verified the integrity of the files and it came back as good.  I manually went to the file location from the error and the sbox.exe file is not there. 

    If there is any known fix to this, that would be greatly appreciated.  Below are my computer details.

    OS: CachyOS
    KERNEL: 6.19.10-1-cachyos
    CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core
    GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (radeonsi, navi10, ACO, DRM 3.64, 6.19.10-1-cachyos)
    GPU DRIVER: 4.6 Mesa 26.0.4-arch2.2
    RAM: 16 GB

    Hey, Sorry to copy Paste here, but i literaly just typed this out on a diferent question.
    for the main game i right clicked it in steam and forced it to use proton experimental.
    For the Editor:
    "I managed to get the editor running w/ proton by adding it's .exe as a non steam game.  The first time you launch it it will tell you you need some net runtime or another, follow the link and install it using protontricks.

    I'm using Arch if it matters, but i suspect it wont since the guy that gave me this tip was running Fedora."

    One problem with both of those fixes, the sbox.exe file is not in the sbox folder for Steam.  I even did a search and it wasn't there at all.  The issue isn't that the sbox.exe file won't open, it's that it doesn't exist.
