Does the Steam Deck have Windows installed?

Best Answer

Nope, the Steam Deck doesn't come with Windows out of the box. It runs on SteamOS, which is Valve's own Linux-based operating system. But don't worry, you can still install Windows on it if you want to dive into some DIY.

The Steam Deck runs SteamOS by default, not Windows. However, it's been designed with flexibility in mind, so tech-savvy users can indeed install Windows on it.
