Save Files Deleting When I Launch Game

[Layflop]

So I recently began playing FF7 again on a new laptop. I didn't see my old save files when I started a new game but didn't think anything of it because the my old save files were on my old computer anyway. As I went on however, my saves wouldn't stay after I saved. They stay in the file until I launch the game again in which they immediately disappear from the folder. Anyone have a fix for this? I have my Steam Cloud disabled so I know that's not the issue and my antivirus allows it through so it can't be that either. I made sure the save files I edited with Black Chocobo weren't set to read-only but still no difference. My Square Enix Cloud Saving doesn't appear to be working but I wasn't sure if that was the problem or how to fix it. I also restarted my laptop and steam, as well as reinstalling the game on the main drive of my computer and verifying the file integrity. None of this helped or fixed it. Does anyone have any suggestions or fixes? I am completely baffled by this after troubleshooting for hours. Let me know if any of you have also experienced this issue.
