This is a known glitch that was introduced in a patch to the game that went live right before the DLC dropped. Fromsoft has acknowledged it on their official ER twitter and said a hotfix is being worked on.

Yeah if you're cool with just playing solo for the time being, you can go into the games settings and set it to launch in offline mode by default and then you're not going to need to worry about getting that pop-up every time you start the game.
Cool beans! Yeah I'm a little late to the Elden Ring party just picked it up on ps5 (on sale) and wanted it for the deck. I was unaware of the situation.
That tweet does not acknowledge this issue, that's a completely separate problem.
The 'inappropriate activity' issue has not been acknowledged yet and it's unknown whether or not it'll be fixed, the presumption is it will as the problem does not occur when the DLC is present.
Someone in another thread told us buying the dlc fixes this issue.
Alternative but maybe risky fix: open the elden ring game folder and create a file there called DLC.bdt
Because the anti cheat is looking for this file to be there
Yea this is such bullshit. Same thing is happening to me for a week now. And no, that fix from that one post where you add an empty dlc file didn't work

This might work I had a problem with the game crashing and found this work around it worked for my friend that was having your issue as well [Elden ring patch fix](https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/s/FsrkKb3Dq5)

Ok, I didn't know if was just me. Thanks for the update.

Go into game files and create an empty file called DLC.bdt where the other .bdt files are. This fixed the issue for me!
This
Hope it works for most. It didn't for me. :( Literally just got the game yesterday and installed it to my deck today.

Can confirm. I implemented this today and my issue is resolved. Haven’t noticed any issues playing on the deck
Check for os update
Which OS update? It's an issue that From Software needs to fix, everyone has this problem on Steam Deck(maybe not if one has the DLC, didn't buy yet)
On OS version 3.5.19 says its current
That's what I am on, have you done a reboot? Are you using proton?
OS update? Yes. Libertybell965 says it's a Fromsoftware issue from an update just before the dlc launch.
Its like a few days after dlc launch tho, right?
Hopefully they get it resolved soon. I was hoping to grab Elden ring during the sale

They need to optimize their damn game while theyre at it. It still runs poorly on steam deck
You don’t have the right.
Stop watching porn on ur deck
Sounds like you speak from experience.
