The option will be disabled otherwise. + - The "Start Minimized" option is still unavailable in Linux due to issues with Mono. +- GBM now stores all Wine configuration data seperately from the core game configuration: + - The core configuration is no longer altered in any way when a game is detected running in Wine or Proton. + - The Wine configuration data is now automatically updated each time a game is detected, such as when running the game from a new prefix. + - This data can be viewed and manually modified on the Game Manager. +- Fixed the handling of Wine/Proton games when multiple configurations are detected. +- Fixed a crash when using "Backup Only" and "New Backups Pending" filters on the Game Manager.
