Does Emudeck work flawlessly out of the box for you or did you need further settings? I set up a Gameboy Advanced Emulator on my Deck two times, the second time via Emudeck. Both times it worked the first time I started it but afterwards not even a window popped up.
Been great for me but I have had to clear config a few times to get settings to stick. Been mainly playing switch/with though, haven't tried GBA. I have done writeups years ago on manually setting up emulators/steam rom manager, so I think they've done a great job automating a lot of it away... But at the end of the day it's still a fiddly proposition
