I guess that Galaxy is saving my EU2 saves to the cloud?

After starting the game and familarizing myself with it, I decided to restart on 'NORMAL - NORMAL' and want to delete my saves from the earlier game. I cannot find them, and cannot figure how to get to the cloud to look there. I think I'd rather save on my own computer -- any disadvantage to that? How do I shut off the cloud save option?

Thanks for reading and for suggestions/ help.

TU Norway, I appreciate your reply.

I wound up deleting the Galaxy version of EU2 and downloading the backup game files from GOG and installing the game from that. The saves from the Galaxy version are gone, and the newly installed game saves to my PC.

there are major sync issues with Gog but i'm happy you got your game working

to answer the other part of your question [see image] you can tell Galaxy not to sync saves on a game configer page

out of interest are you using Windows 10?
