#Problem with steam cloud
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Good day! I am very sorry that you have experienced this issue. It is indeed true that our saves could get corrupted while syncing through Steam cloud.
It is currently advised to to not use cloud saves.
We are trying to understand why this happen and how we can adress this. But it could take some time unfortunately.
Very sorry you had this issue 🙁
Thanks for the advice
Small correction to the message above - if you've had issues - we advice to NOT use clouds for now
@vernal kite had a typo in my previous message. Please do NOT use steam cloud saves.
Just to confirm - I've disabled steam cloud, enabling it could lead to loss of data? Would I be able to import my non steam cloud data later once a fix is found?
enabling it could lead to loss of data
yes
Would I be able to import my non steam cloud data later once a fix is found
Yes, steam cloud only syncs on launch and exit of the specific game and there is a way to force your local save upon the cloud
ok then it's better to save on local storage, after a solution you can use the Cloud I understood correctly

What if cloud saves already syncing before backup of local saves?
Me, for example, now can't enter to the game witn endless loading screen

good day sir, very sorry to hear that.
there were several possible solutions to that, but I'm afraid they not always work 🙁
Possible solution one:
Disable steam cloud saves
%Localappdata%\Local\R5\Saved\SaveProfiles(some numbers)\RocksDB\0.10.0\Accounts(some numbers)\CURRENT
Open with any text editor (notepad), it will contain text like MANIFEST-000005
In same folder look for file called MANIFEST-XXXXXX
If file name is not the same as from CURRENT step 3 - rename it to match step 3.
Possible solution 2 could be found in this video:

After a bunch of troubleshooting I figured out how to recover your save game on Windrose after getting stuck at loading screen.
