Every time I'm in Desktop Mode this pops up. It seems to be spawned by Steam Proton, though I'm not sure why since it happens even before I launch a game or software. Can't figure out what exact process is running it. Hitting install either fails checksum, or nothing happens after it finishes the download, and then it just pops up again. Any ideas?

I don't know about Steam/Proton trying to install Mono itself, but Wine definitely does that (and Proton is just Wine with extras and scripts)

At that point, I'd just locate which game it is and rename its directory in compatdata then removed the old one atfer confirming that it's fixed. If the game doesn't support cloud saves, you might want to find and move your progress to the new prefix.
