I also added the Origin Web Helper service (it's basically Chromium overlay for Origin) and corrected(?) the Rockstar-related names. Not sure if my syntax is correct. The spaces seem wrong, but I'm not 100% sure if they really are wrong. |

@Blisto91 Many thanks for your help. The PR is what I initially wanted now. For extra safety, I kept the folders. |

Please consider a squash merge to avoid unnecessary commits. |

This band-aid is getting annoying and we really need to find a way to make this the default behaviour for all apps, but well, guess the band-aid fixes will do for now. |

Nothing is more permanent than a temporary solution. 🍷 |

Tested by exiting Steam completely, then launching with
DXVK_CONFIG="dxvk.maxChunkSize = 1" steamand playing Watch Dogs 1 for about 5 minutes. Haven't experienced any problems.Below are the processes that stay open with the game in the background:
UbisoftConnect.exeis the main process, which doesn't stay open, but I'm adding it for extra safety.upc.exeseems to be what really matters here (I guess it means "UPlay Core").We also have these ones in the Ubisoft Game Launcher installation folder:
UbisoftGameLauncher64.exeandUbisoftGameLauncher.exe(opens temporarily during Steam game launch; maybe a proxy service for Steam-Ubisoft?)UplayCrashReporter.exe(I don't think this one needs maxchunksize)UplayWebCore.exe(probably related to the overlay, but the UPlay overlay causes issues on Linux and Lutris even disables it by editing a config. file)UbisoftExtension.exeandUplayService.exe(I have no idea, but they do not stay open with the game)Feel free to add maxchunksize for any process mentioned before that I haven't added if you have a better reasoning.
To be clear, Ubisoft does not support its legacy launcher anymore, and forces the new one onto its users, so there's no point to add UPlay-exclusive-related process names here.
Thank you for your attention.
