How to enable cloud saves on Steam

If there's one thing you want to be absolutely certain of when playing games, it's that your save file is backed up and secure in the event that you ever experience hardware failure. Without cloud saves, a failed drive could mean the complete loss of every saved game you've ever played. As such, we highly recommend making a use of any cloud saving option regardless of your platform. And if you're on Steam, this feature tends to be enabled automatically — but just in case, here's how you can enable (or disable) cloud saves.
