Ulbrecht Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 hello folks i wanted to start a whole new fresh game and deleted all my old saves in my save folder. What i'd like to know where steam hides copies of these saves that keep showing up when in game, i have disabled cloud.i only want to use my save folder in local disk\user\owner\my documents\my games\skyrim\saves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiegril Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 That is strange, if you deleted those saves and completely reinstalled skyrim you should not have old saves, unless you reinstalled from a backup? You did uninstall Skyrim by using the delete local content thing on steam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgiegril Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 So, I am not following you, I guess! Are you saying that you started a new game, but did not do a fresh reinstall of the game, however you did delete the files in your savegame folder. Now the files you deleted are reappearing in your savegame folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulbrecht Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) all i can think of is steam cloud is making the game use saves outside of the main save folder,but where and how to stop skyrim loading them, all i want is to load from the main save folder Oh and thanks Georgiegril for trying to help me Edited August 29, 2012 by Ulbrecht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fms1 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Try to delete the saves in game from the load menu, if you haven't already (assuming your deleting the saves manually from My Documents\My Games\Skyrim). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
