Cloud saves gone. All progress lost. (FIXED)

[Combo]

I need my saves stored in the cloud like I need another hole in the head. It's one thing if it actually works, but when I go to my other machine and loose EVERYTHING its not cool. Aside from that I think the game is awesome. Please fix this non-sence, cloud saves should be optional (in wich case I will decline, I have no problem backing up my own files)

Please fix this

Right click the game in your Library, click Properties, go to the Updates tab, uncheck "Enable Steam Cloud synchronization ..."

That sucks. I will point out however that you can disable steam cloud.

In your Steam Library, right-click on Doom and select "Properties."

Uncheck "Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for Doom."

You can backup your saves from here - Users\*USERNAME*\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM\base\savegame\GAME-AUTOSAVE0

Actually when I went to my second machine I was given two choices from the game menu. Upload / download....Clicked download, all progress gone. I think "id" cloud is the issue, not steam. Not sure, but it sucks. Going to try your advise, thanks!

This^^^ Except for multiple Steam accounts on one machine, copy the whole folder. Users\*USERNAME*\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM\base\savegame

Thanks fraggyb

Recently I lost all my progress too. Every time i started the game i got the new game slot. The game files are synchronized well from the cloud.

To be short, what I did to fix the problem is looking if different directories were created for the savegame files when i started a new game comparing with the cloud files directories. Imagine what? YES!.

So To Fix This....

1. Backup the id Software folder (cloud files) located C:\Users\User\Saved Games to another directory.
2.Now delete the whole folder from C:\Users\Username\Saved Games\id Software
3.Disable automatic synchronization of files from the cloud.
4. Move the folder GAME-AUTOSAVE0 from C:\Users\User\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM\base\savegame to C:\Users\User\Saved Games\id {LINK REMOVED}Software/DOOM/base/savegame.user/76561198001xxxxxx
5. Move the same folder to C:\Users\User\Saved Games\id {LINK REMOVED}Software/DOOM/base/generated/temp/savegame.user/76561198001xxxxxx
6. Start the game!

Done!

Does anyone have a savegame with mission 9 Lazarus ? I have lost all my savedata. Even on the cloud and local storage. I will appreciate any kind of help. All the best,

I have recently experienced this exact same issue. None of my saves for any of my Steam games are here. I will request refunds for everything if this is not fixed. I didnt pay money for a game that i have to restart every time i play it. Please fix.

You need to contact Valve directly for support. Posting in a Steam forum for a game you don't have a license for will not solve the problem you're experiencing. Good luck.

If you didn't delete the save folders or deactivated steam cloud saving than not seeing any of your save is a bug. Just restart the PC or Steam and try again.

You don't own DOOM 2016. Your problem isn't a game problem. It's a Steam problem. So wrong place.

My apologies. I've been surfing for an answer and this is the closest I've found to my problem. None of my games will load, yet all of their saved data is there.

Restart Steam or your PC. It sometimes happen.
