Description
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
This isn't necessarily a bug with Dolphin per se, but I think it's worth reporting. I typically run Dolphin through Steam (by adding dolphin.exe as a non-Steam game) so that I can use my controller. However, trying to launch Dolphin through Steam on version 5.0-17269, it didn't launch. (For the record, every other Steam game and non-Steam game/program I launched through Steam worked.)
However, changing nothing but the version of dolphin.exe, dolphintool.exe, dsptool.exe, and updater.exe to those from the 5.0-16793 version, got this issue to disappear, and I could now launch dolphin through steam.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
On windows 10 x64, add Dolphin.exe version 5.0-17269 to Steam as a non-Steam game and attempt to open. This was also using a 3rd party controller with Steam.

Can you elaborate on "didn't launch"? Did it crash, did nothing happen, etc etc?

- Status changed from New to Fixed
- Fixed in set to 5.0-17295
Since the issue report doesn't include the part of the template that asks if the issue happens on the latest development version, I will assume this was fixed in 5.0-17295. Please comment if the issue does happen in the latest development build.
