I have 2 files which uploaded by mistake on steam. I deleted those files from my local files but whenever I run the game , it again restores automatically from where it was

Disable cloud remote storage temporarily.
Run the game then pause it go to your saves folder and delete those saves you dont want.
Return to game make a new save then quit it and exit.
Go back to Cloud Remote storage and renable relaunch game cloud will sync first only the saves currently over riding anything else.
Then all is gone works for me.
Edit
just disable Cloud , the saves are on our HDD just remember to make copies of those saves occasionally as a backup to a USB drive .

Launch the game. While the game is running delete the files. When you exit the game it should sync to cloud that these files are deleted.

Was it really necessary to necro a thread just to say that?

I have done this and my local files are 1.7GB and the cloud is 4.66gb and it warns me every time I start the game. The cloud does not sync to the files I have locally and I cant delete them.

Any clues?, thanks
