Cloud Status - Out of sync

[Dewey115]

I noticed that a few of my games didn't show the green Play button. Never noticed that before, but there were a few. I think they had all recently been updated (but not 100% sure). Well I see that it says that the Cloud Status is "Out of sync". When I hover over that I get a message that says "Changes from another device have not yet been uploaded to the Steam Cloud." Is this actually an accurate message? I use Steam on only on device, this one. So what is the "another device" and why does it need to upload something to MY Steam Cloud?

This feels like it should just be something about me needing to download my cloud saves back to this pc (instead of another device still needing to uploading it) but that is certainly nothing like what the message seems to be saying. Since there is such a massive difference between what I think is wrong and what the message is telling me is wrong, I figure I should ask about it. Is this just an example of an error message being worded terribly? Or is this message really trying to tell me that there is some ninja hacker sitting in his hideout playing MY copy of Half-Life 2 right now and hasn't saved recently?

Steam now requires to check all our games are synced to Steam.
Backup save before trying this.
On any games that give sync problem in the properties of that game enable cloud briefly then under the Artwork in the library for that game a link appears to update Steam click on that, you may have try it a couple of times it will ten download. Its done,
Now disable cloud remotes saves again in game properties.

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.

although CLOUD STATUS may say Up to date. don't assume that's true. I just check mine on a game played daily, cloud files are dated October 10 of last year.
Don't trust the app being accurate with cloud.

Artwork tab is in your profile, open it then add Artwork. Upload it with title and description then view online and share the link to it
