Managing Steam saves can be simple. For cloud-enabled games, Steam automatically backs up saves to the cloud—just ensure cloud synchronization is enabled in Steam settings. For local saves, identify the save folder, usually in the game’s installation directory or the 'My Documents' folder. Manually back these up by copying them to another location. Consider using backup software for automated and regular backups.
