[QUOTE="zmcvay, post: 266348, member: 4746"] Pod, was your HDD save just the files in /MyGames/PinballArcade, or the remotecache.vdf and pbaprg.dat files as well? I didn't back up the latter and had the same problem, my scores/goals kept getting overwritten even when I turned off Cloud Saves. I ended up deleting the last two files, starting Pinball Arcade with Steam in Offline mode, unchecked cloud sync and confirmed the backed up scores were now loading properly and Steam had created a new remotecache.vdf and pbaprg.dat. I then had to change the localtime value in remotecache.vdf as covered by Xanija's guide (Big Thanks Xan, you are a livesaver!). After that I turned back on cloud saves, got a prompt asking if I wanted to overwrite the cloud saves with local data and I seem to be good from here. Lost 2 months of goals and score progress, but a lot better than losing three years worth. Also, I've had no trouble with Ghostbusters in TPA since release, but since this last update it is now stuttering like crazy, has anyone else had this issue? Ghostbusters in SPA is still running silky smooth. [/QUOTE]
