I am looking for advice to prevent this from happening in the future but also to warn that this could be an issue with certain games that use one copy of a save file. I am running GameNative in an AYN Thor with default configs on this game, and an up to date version of GameNative.

When trying to launch StS2 on my AYN Thor via GameNative it had issues launching where the game was attempting to initialise (Controller/Mouse connected notifications appearing) but simply would not make it to the menu.

I was forced to kill the program and reload - this caused the game to load without a save file for a reason that is still not clear. When the game closed the save file was overwritten in all locations, locally, and in Steam Cloud which then synced to all devices.

if anyone has advice on how to prevent this happening again it would be greatly appreciated - I have lost a lot of hours in StS2 that I will now need to spend unlocking everything again, and I feel quite uncomfortable running any game through GameNative right now because of this issue.
