It seems like you're trying to access Skyrim that isn't installed via Steam? /home/deck/Games is managed by Heroic according to some googling I've done. If so, Protontricks might not be able to have access to the required files by default.
In this case, Protontricks does not have access to your entire home directory by default. You can enable access by installing and running Flatseal, selecting Protontricks and checking either "All user files" under "Filesystem", or adding new entry under "Other files" with text ~/Games.
Protontricks does not have official support for games that are not managed by Steam, however, so there might be other issues. Still, hopefully this helps.
Yep, you right. My Skyrim isn`t installed via Steam. Its gog version from my PC.
Thank you for your advice! Im install Flatseal and did what you say, but now nothing is happend.
I launch the winetricks app, select my game, the window closes and nothing else happens It also happens vith all games installed via Steam.
