Obvious question, but did you save it to the cloud and are looking in the local folder? Or vice versa? Otherwise, I have no idea.

I don't know what happens if you don't save on exit during ironman. I've never done it.

When you go to load a game, you should see 2 buttons above the list of saved games. One says, "Local" and the other says, "Cloud." Try clicking on both of them and see if your saved game is there.

The other obvious question is that you're playing on the same computer as before, right? If it's a local save and you load up Steam on another computer, you won't see your saved game.

Go to documents paradox and you should see a Backup folder that has saves in it. if you launched client and it said clear user directory then you emoved all saves and mods.

C:\Users\Kaden\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\save games

This is where you put your save files ending in extension hoi4
