How do I delete Steam Cloud files

[RamonaSteve]

I am playing Surviving Mars and have a ton of saved games. I can delete them from my PC running Windows 11 but as soon as I turn cloud sync on, they come back. Is there a way to manage files that are stored in Steam Could? Thanks.

Open the Steam client and go to the Library tab.

Right-click the game you want to customize the Steam Cloud settings for.

Select Properties.

In the General section, toggle "Keep game saves in the Steam Cloud for [game name]" as needed.

To download your Steam cloud save files via a web browser, visit Valve's View Steam Cloud page and sign in with your Steam account

Run the game with Steam Cloud enabled. While game is running (important!) delete the save games you don't want then exit game normally and Steam should synch your saves with cloud, removing all the saves you just deleted from cloud storage.

You need to have the cloud enabled for the game, and then go and delete them in the game's save menu.
