Trying to launch a game like "Link's Awakening DX" is not currently possible using the Steam launcher since the "'" character breaks the launch command.

Escaping the character could be a solution, but common solutions like using the '' character don't seem to work.

Can confirm.

"C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k start /min "Loading PowerShell Launcher" "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& {E:\Emulation\tools\launchers\melonds.ps1 '-f' 'E:\Emulation\roms\nds\Yu-Gi-Oh! - 5D's World Championship 2011 - Over the Nexus.nds'}" && exit " && exit --emudeck

needs to be

"C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k start /min "Loading PowerShell Launcher" "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "& {E:\Emulation\tools\launchers\melonds.ps1 '-f' 'E:\Emulation\roms\nds\Yu-Gi-Oh! - 5D''s World Championship 2011 - Over the Nexus.nds'}" && exit " && exit --emudeck

Note the 5D's that changed to 5D''s
