Screenshots being deleted from cloud when trying to delete from local drive.

Storage options (Settings>Storage) shows 100s of screenshots on my C drive.

There shouldn't be any. I've previously configured Steam to use my E drive for screenshots... This option has either been relocated, or removed...? (Found it, still set to use E).

Using the storage option to delete the pictures that are supposedly on my C drive (some of them from years ago), it has deleted them from my profile entirely.

Me too :( Like 100 screenshots were deleted before I realized...

Pretty sure I lost about 7 or 8 years worth before I realised...

Luckily most of mine were junk: I have a habit of spamming the screenshot key 5 or 6 times in a second or two, with the intention of picking the best one and discarding the rest (which I basically never get around to lol).

I just lost almost all of my uploaded screenshots because the manager now deletes uploaded ones from the website and from the manager. I often do 'select all' and then 'delete' because it was a quick way to delete all screenshots I didn't want, and it would leave the uploaded ones in the manager (which I actually didn't like) and it couldn't delete ones uploaded to Steam. Now it deletes everywhere.

The screenshots themselves I still have because I don't rely on Steam folders to save my screenshots, but to have the manager remove them from the site without warning (that I saw) when it didn't used to is messed up.

Just deleted all my screenshots to clear up some space on my ssd, "believing" those in the steam-cloud were "safe".
No warning or info, whatsoever and the screenshots were deleted from my disk and the cloud.
WTF is wrong with you VALVE? Maybe let chatgpt try to "programm" the steam client for ya.
