Create the Steam prefix stamp only after successful completion.
SteamInstallScriptStep.buildCommand creates prefixStamp before reg add runs. XServerScreen.chainPreInstallSteps ignores the termination status and marks the step complete for every termination. A failed command therefore leaves both guards set, so later launches skip the registry commands. Move stamp and marker completion to the chain’s status == 0 path.

Pass registry commands without raw cmd /c percent expansion.
escapeCmdArgument changes %SystemRoot%\foo to %%SystemRoot%%, but wrapAsGuestExecutable sends the command directly to Wine cmd /c. reg.exe can receive %<expanded SystemRoot>%, not %SystemRoot%\foo, and ^%SystemRoot^% is not a fix because the quoted data preserves the carets. Use an argument-preserving invocation for reg.exe (or a batch-file transport where %% has batch semantics), then apply type-aware escaping and add a regression test.

Replace the reg add command chain with a direct write through WineRegistryEditor. The cmd path broke on values ending in a backslash (a bare %INSTALLDIR%) and mangled % in REG_EXPAND_SZ data, and it cost an extra Wine session per game and prefix.

Gate completion markers on a successful registry commit.
WineRegistryEditor.setRawValue() logs caught IOException but returns no failure status. WineRegistryEditor.close() also ignores the result of cloneFile.renameTo(file). Therefore, SteamInstallScriptRegistry.write() can return after a failed or partial update. applyForLaunch() then adds both completion markers without validating the registry files. If both markers are created, later launches return early and do not retry. No transaction covers system.reg and user.reg.
Propagate write and commit failures through write(). Create the markers only after every required registry file commits successfully.

Root cause
GameNative stores Steam's install-script filename from app metadata in KeyValueUtils.kt, but the launch pipeline never consumes the referenced VDF. Games that depend on registry setup normally performed by Steam therefore launch with missing keys; Spore (17390) reports that its configuration script failed after querying its missing Electronic Arts\SPORE key.
Fix
This intentionally does not execute arbitrary Run Process content from the VDF; existing prerequisite steps remain responsible for known redistributables.
Summary by cubic
Applies Steam install-script registry entries before launch so games that rely on Steam's registry setup no longer start with missing keys (for example, Spore's
Electronic Arts\SPOREkey). Previously the pipeline recorded the script filename but never ran the referenced VDF.WineRegistryEditor, avoiding an extra Wine session.%INSTALLDIR%,%ROOTDRIVE%,%STEAMPATH%, profile paths), selects language-specific value blocks with English fallback, handles(Default)values, and redirects HKLM Software keys toWow6432Nodeto match Steam's 32-bit client behavior.Written for commit 383e2c4. Summary will update on new commits.
