There’s no way to set it as default completely. You can set it as default for titles that Valve hasn’t explicitly overriden, but if Valve decides that a certain game works with Proton 8 or Hotfix, it will automatically install those. I really wish there was a way to force Experimental in all cases.
I would guess to help excuse [compatibility] errors. Make you cognizant of the experimental nature, perhaps head you off before complaining to the developers.
Why do I have to click this box? Why isn’t the default option. I just want to click on a Windows game and then install. I’m I alone on this?
You can enable such an option in the settings
