About This Software

Universal Steam Cloudsave Manager (USCM) brings Steam Cloud saves to every game you own

USCM is a cross-platform save backup and sync tool that allows you to safely back up, restore, and synchronize game save data across Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck using Steam Cloud as the transport layer.

Whether you play indie games, classics, modded titles, emulators, DRM-free games, or non-Steam software, USCM gives you a simple, reliable way to keep your progress safe and accessible across all your devices.

Your Saves, Where You Play.

What USCM Is For

• Syncing saves between multiple PCs and Steam Deck

• Backing up save files for games without native cloud support

• Managing saves for emulators, mods, and custom launchers

• Protecting progress in older or DRM-free games

• Seamless cross-platform save access on Windows & Linux

Current Features

• Universal Game Support
  Add any game or application, Steam or non-Steam, as a profile.

• Full Folder Save Backups
  Entire save directories are backed up, not just individual files.

• Steam Cloud Integration
  Uses Steam Cloud to sync your saves automatically across devices.

• Cross-Platform Sync
  Works natively on Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck.

• Profile-Based Save Management
  Each game has its own isolated cloud folder and configuration.

• Automatic Device Detection
  Tracks which save path applies to each device independently.

• Smart Differential Syncing
  Only changed files are uploaded or restored to improve performance, using timestamps, size, and MD5.

• Manual Restore & Rollback
  Restore saves to local and cloud from backups at any time.

• Local & Cloud Safety
  Cloud data is stored separately from your original save locations.

• Anyone tired of manually copying save files

What USCM Is Not
