To delete your Steam Cloud saves, you first gotta dive into the Steam client itself. Here's a quick step-by-step: Open up Steam, head to 'Settings' > 'Cloud' and uncheck 'Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for applications which support it'. This stops the sync, but doesn't delete the saves. Now, for the purge part, you need to go into the game's folder in your Steam directory and look for the save files manually. Once you find them, delete away. Remember, this is more like a local wipe. Steam might still keep some of your cloud saves safe and snug on its servers.

Actually, there's no direct way to delete cloud saves from Steam's interface. The best you can do is disable Steam Cloud for individual games. This stops them from syncing future data but doesn't delete existing saves. To really clean up, you might need to manually find the save files on your PC and delete them, or even reach out to the game's support team for a more specific cleanup method. Always back up stuff you might regret losing!

I tried the whole manual deletion thing and honestly, it's a hassle but works. Just make sure you're deleting the right files, or it's bye-bye game progress.

Just turn off cloud sync and delete local files, easy peasy. Saves gone.
