How can I force my local save to replace a save in the Steam cloud?

[deusvulpix]

Hi, I turned off Steam cloud syncs for Final Fantasy XV a while back and went on to complete it. There's a save halfway through the game that's still in the cloud, and when I turn on cloud sync for the game it instantly erases my completed save (luckily I had the foresight to save it elsewhere). If I turn the sync off and replace the saves in the directory with my backed up completed save, I can play the game from that save. However, as soon as I turn on cloud sync, it instantly erases my completed save no matter what. I want to force Steam to replace the incomplete save I have in the cloud with the completed save I have locally, so I can have the completed save if I move machines or reinstall later. How do I do that?

Take ofc backup of current game, then pretend and remove all new save game from location.
then enable sync could again and let it think it original game then open that gamer and in game go into save or load game menu and delete them, this should then sync with steam cloud.

the idea is let it think its original game, then done with delete it ingame then you replace it with right one.



ps.
do understand let it restore so it dont crash it a double fix, if you can call it that.
