# GamesDows
The Enable GamesDows script makes Windows boot straight into Steam Big Picture without displaying any Explorer UI elements to ensure a Game Console like experience on Windows. I made this because I have a Steam Deck and I want the experience to mirror that of Steam OS as closely as possible. However, this will work on any Windows PC, the commands are not specific to the Steam Deck.
**How the main functionality works: Enable batch script sets steam big picture as the shell > batch launches steam as lower privileged (so mouse and keyboard don't work on system prompts such as task manager yet, it needs to run as admin to fix that. The enable batch script creates a VBS script to suppress the command prompt window set as the shell at boot > The VBS script launches a second batch script created by the enable script run as admin > The second batch script is run by a scheduled task after a 20 second delay > delayed explorer batch script resets the shell to the VBS script so Steam launches as the default shell at boot after another 10 seconds.**

**Here's a detailed breakdown of what each part of the script does**:
