Recent updates have resulted in lots of cloud sync errors
As of maybe three weeks ago, Cloud Saves seemed to be working OK except for the usual slow sync speeds. After some recent updates to the Steam client though, I'm seeing lots of cloud sync errors. Pressing the button to try again always fails. Cloud saves aren't essential, but they can be very helpful at times. Any suggestions for fixing this? Is it a known issue, or am I an outlier?

Ofren times a Steam fix was applied and broke it instead. This one broke it.
Rightclick the game properties>enable cloud then look under artwork next to play> click that link and update it.
Fom now on if you click ongame in the library a short flash of a cloud will appear and check if our Steam Cloud is up to date.

Yep I've tried that multiple times and it still bombs. Sometimes see an error that another device has not completed an upload to the steam cloud, other times no clue why the sync failed.

Same here - it used to fix itself after clicking the sync button, but not anymore
As of today, there are some glitches, and again it happen again. verify game file worked, the problem is the service that checks/verifies the cloud data probably.
