Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Error information when user is out of free space could be improved. Currently there is only message that "cloud sync failed" but no indication as to why.

If user is out of free space retrying will not help until user does action so telling user about it could save some troubleshooting and improving user experience.

There's potentially other cases where the error could tell user a bit more about why. It looked like there might not be much clues in other cases either.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. fill disk space
  2. attempt to launch a game that you've reinstalled (will try to fetch save games again)
  3. check the output on error
