I recently installed new windows 10 and I already backed my stuff on my old os and one of them is witcher 3 and its files before i installed windows.
my problem is that after i installed windows and tried to browse my backup my witcher 3 saves were outdated and my current ones disappeared even in my other second folder to backup witcher 3 my latest save files were gone and the latest file even in my witcher 3 original save folder is steam_autocloud.vdf which is a year gap on the files before it.
Now im still confused as to why this happened because i backed up all my things including the latest witcher 3 saves and main folders and my backup one but I think its because I uninstalled witcher 3 before backing up my pc so it may have affected some stuff, but I did it cause I thought even if i delete it the savefiles would still be there cause before i already did it many times and when i install witcher 3 it still has the saves but not today.
All my latest files are gone and I'm left with a steam_autocloud.vdf that is the latest file that match my last saved time so i figured maybe its in the cloud in steam so reinstalling witcher 3 in steam would restore it but im still skeptical and this is a years worth of saves so is there any way i could restore them or just install steam and hope for the best ?
