Your system information

  • Steam client version: 1660960119
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Garuda (Arch)
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] Tried both
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Duh

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I have disabled Cloud Sync for each game individually and globally. However if Steam is offline Cloud Sync always nags that it's enabled and can not sync. This has been going on for a few prior builds and I have reported it to Steam Support several times.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Start Steam with Cloud Sync disabled (per game and or globally).
  2. Start a game and expect it to launch.
  3. Enjoy the Nag screen that Cloud Sync can't sync.

The UI has been broken too though for the attached Screen Shot I notice it's finally sizing correctly to where you can click the nag. Before the UI would be sized in a way that you would have to scroll to click the nag buttons.

Closing in favor of the older issue report.
