I support this feature.

I have over 300 games with synced data and I want to wipe them all. Currently it is IMPOSSIBLE to remove cloud data and it's frustrating not being able to delete the data in the cloud.

I contacted customer support and asked them to delete the data, but they are unwilling to do so, so I really hope someone will implement this feature.

It's 2021 Steam. It is time to give users control over their cloud data.

And, as a bonus, you will get free space!

I really hope it won't be long anymore, people have been asking for years for this feature and this ticket, by now, is already a few years old.

You can see cloud details on https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorage

I support this feature, some games have less than ideal implementation of cloud for their data, and it would be nice to be able to work around this without having to force a cloud conflict. You already have the interface behind the my account data, why not add a "delete" button?

Case in point: The Witcher 2. It builds up a huge amount of saves, since it creates a new file (along with an uncompressed screenshot) every single time you save, having lot of saves slows down loading severely, if you try to delete the save files with a file manager, Steam just redownloads them, and the in-game save deletion is not an option since you have to delete each save one-by-one, and each one takes several seconds. So cloud sync is effectively unusable with that game the way it works now (of course, purging all files isn't a solution, you need to be able to choose which saves to delete).

It happens that this would have been particularly helpful in the last week, steam controller input management is currently bugged and makes dealing with steam deck custom configs pretty bad right now. If this was already implemented the problem would be less impactful.

Even worse, eventually the game stops saving when you're connected to the internet, and lies about it. So at that point the game is unplayable unless you disconnect from the internet.

im stuck with a corrupt save file nane in victoria 3 and i cannot use cloud saves anymore

Please add this. It's actually needed in many cases to fix legitimate bugs or problems. For example Resident Evil 4 Remake has a bug where loading times are affected by the number of save slots used. It takes a lot of time to load the game if you have all the slots populated which I do.

This would be nice to just scrub a game to its default state.

Please just add a delete button to the existing remotestorage URL. I beg you.

currently my issue on the Steam Deck. This needs to be fixed as it's a big sore point on the Deck and SteamOS in general.

Edit: There's also issues where SteamOS likes to stay on "Syncing Cloud Saves" when going from Gaming to Desktop Mode, with no way other than disabling cloud saves or disconnecting from the internet to stop this from happening. There's one game taking over 10 gigs of cloud storage space which I cannot delete from the Cloud Sync, and it always either gives me a cloud save error or just hangs up launching said game in an attempt to sync. This is untenable especially on the go using a hotspot.
