Hello, I have successfully install gcenx prebuilt game-porting-toolkit. But when I start steam.exe, it has no window and shows the following errors.

So how can I fix this error？

I also meet the same problem on M1, the "update steam" pops for a while and finished, but the main steam window never show up, I waited enough time and finally the log shows "nothing to do" and windows still doesn't show up:

the same from my side. I never see steam login.

@jhljx how you fix it? Thanks in advance.

I'm also stuck with not being able to run steam.exe. I get the webhelper UI error window and an endless stream of errors in Terminal, including the Vulkan error.

It seems that the setup is more tricky than expected and not accessible to everyone. Anyway, kudos for the project and all the help.
