I just installed fresh on a new computer and installed the latest Chiaki-ng. I added it to Steam, and it launches and runs fine, but I cannot get the Steam Overlay working. I noticed on my Deck that there are special launch options added, are there any such required options for getting the overlay working in Windows?

I am having the exact same problem. All the face buttons work on the steam controller, but I cannot map any buttons to the back buttons, not even the keyboard shortcuts or keyboard maps for the controller

At this point Chiaki is useless for me. No Steam Overlay, no can play with my controller. I've now had this issue on two separate machines, neither updating to the latest version nor running steam as an administrator works.
