:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.

Hello, my saved and autosave games used to be stored only locally, however since the last patch/DLC is active my saved games automatically go into cloud storage. I have the last DLC installed and working properly.

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Open a single player game, doesn’t matter skirmish or campaign.
  2. Save a game or wait for an autosave to be created.
  3. Open the saved games menu in the game and you can see a cloud symbol instead of a computer screen symbol in the end of each saved game.

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?

I believe I am supposed to be able to decide whether or not I want my saved games to go on cloud and in my case I want to disable that option and have all my saved games be stored locally on my PC.

:point_down: Attach a SAVE GAME (.aoe2spgame) or GAME RECORDING (.aoe2record) of the match where you encountered the issue. Link it below if using an external file service.

Hi @Sethlaw3787
Did you try disabling Steam Cloud?

Hi, I have it disabled on steam, however my AoE is from microsoft store because I was too excited to get it at the time and didn’t even second guess if there are other options available. : )

Bump for justice? I’m sure I have seen an explanation in the past about disabling cloud saves, but I’ve been unable to find it again, someone please help : )
