Elden Ring does not work just says cant find save file

[GayFurryBC]

Some of us should get together to look into class action as there is forums a mile long on users who's game says cant find save file. I have a brand new pc a new game downloaded and I have save to cloud files turned off yet my game apparently cant find any game.There isnt any game to be found i just installed it lol. The only fix is to download some sketchy program the game did not make. I would like to look into legal rights because why do we pay so much for not working products and no support.I get a single menu it says load game click that and says cant find game files on a band new installed game on a brand new pc

so you installed a image that was created at a other system to a new one ?

i do not understand how the windows 10 installation was put onto the new hardware, normally you create a fresh installation media with the microsoft windows media creation tool and install windows 10 at new hardware completely new.

if you have done a image copy it is possible that your actual windows user profile has not the right to access the savefiles from the old computer.

You know they are saved in a windows user profile related appdata folder, by simply copy them to the new destination at a new installed windows it is possible that the rights to access the files do not fit.

The issue is that my Elden Rind has a save file from my old system and its loaded into the steam cloud. On the new system it re loads those corrupted saves. Then it wont load the game only screen I get is click next then it says cant find saves for Elden Ring. The game manufacture and steam both knows about the issue with steam cloud and the game not loading for many users. It a issue between steam and elden ring and becoming the issue of many users who just want to play a game. Steam need a easy way to delete cloud saves and elden ring needs more of a menu then click any button and this wouldn't be a issue.

so the savefile in cloud save is corrupted and writes a damaged file to your system ?

but the cloudsave at the old system is working or not, or is there also a damaged cloudsave ?

I got Elden Ring when it was first released and it had many buggs one was a multiplayer death loop hackers used back then all sorts was happening. And some how the corupted saved games to steam cloud got saved on steams servers now every time i install my game its stuck like this. If elden ring had a menu that says load from saves start new this entire discussion wouldn't be a thing. I have a gaming laptop ill try this on later right now im wating on a guy to buy the pc for 1400 I only downloaded this game as a test game to show him the pc ill try on my gaming laptop this week some time I installed duying light instead to show the pc working Ill figure out elden ring later suprisingly enough every other game I own works just fine HMMMM

so the cloudsave is damaged.

the way to renew it:

deactivate cloud saves, delete the eldenring folder in appdata, start the game without cloudsaves activated, start a game there, close the game with the menu, activate cloudsave but do not synconize the cloud, start the game, cloudsaves get overwritten with the new savefile data.

tested it now, works.

i can also switch back to the old save files this way, i simply had to copy the manual savefiles back and start the game, load into the game, close the game with the menu > old savefile status got written to cloudsave.

I will try tonight on the laptop right now I am working on bidding on some land auctions so I cant right now. I did the math on your profile and assuming u spend 20$ a game u have 813 games that is $16,260 estimate u have spend on games. That is allot of money for gaming what will u do the day steam closes down and u don't own retail copys of the game physically.

the only full price game i have is elden ring and even with this 60 euro full price included the average i payed for my games is below 1 euro.
