Steam Saved Files

[mordrek_2000]

I recently reinstalled Deus Ex: Human Evolution. I have noit played the game since 2017, 3 computers ago. When I started the game I have 80 saved games. I want to delete them. I cannot find the files though. Anyone know where they are? I have looked through my steam/userdata files, of which there are like 50 subfolders, half of which have a "remote" folder but I cannot seem to identify any saved game files. I have the same prblem with Skyrim where there are also settings I cannot seem to get rid of,even with a reformat and fresh install. I assume its coming from steam back up but I cannot figure out how to turn that off either.

Save game path for Deus Ex:Human Revolution on Steam is:
<Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\28050\remote\

There you should find the files. As for Steam automatically dowloading backup saves from the Steam Cloud, right click the game in your library list, select "Properties" and turn off the "Keep game saves in the Steam cloud for Deus Ex: Human Revolution" switch.
Now Steam wont down or upload any save files to the cloud servers for that game.

Pro tip for the future:

GameSaveManager. A really essential utility if you have more than a handful of PC games. It checks your PC for games and their respective saves, and collates them so you can back them up.

But in cases like this, it's great to run as it'll tell you where the save files are located.

Thank you! I finally found the file on my computer about an hour after posting this. I deleted all the saves. started the game and watched all the saves reappear. The turning off the cloud hopefully will do the trick! I had tried searching steam support but it was just "bragging"(for lack of a better term) about cloud saves being there, couldn't find how to turn it off there. So I appreciate the help from both of you. I'm off to find GameSaveManager now
