Did a reboot of PC, restarted Steam...got -console in the Valheim Launch Options...nothing happens in game with F5. It's a total mystery. :{

I used Devcommands once before they changed it, on an older Laptop, and it worked fine. I haven't played Valheim since getting my new PC, but saw the Patch notes that said the process had changed and made a note of that.
I'm just not getting the command entry field coming up when I press F5 so I assume this new process is failing somewhere.
I did see something flash past on one of the forums about...roughly...laptops having trouble with the new process. Think there is any truth in that?
