Windows PC users who have OneDrive running should be aware that the default save location for Wasteland 3 (Documents/My Games/Wasteland3) is by default backed up by OneDrive. Depending on your Steam Cloud Save sync settings, your saves may not be automatically backed up/reinstalled if your Steam Cloud Save or OneDrive settings have changed; or you may find your saves being overwritten by OneDrive/Steam depending on your settings.
It's recommended to check your OneDrive folders and settings to ensure you're logged in and your save files are present on your machine, and/or that your Steam Cloud Saves are functioning correctly. One or both issues may result in "missing" our outdated saves until one or both backup methods are resolved.
