How about the Ability to Delete Cloud Saves

If cloud saves were deleted, im not sure theres anything to recover. Cant imagine if this would work, but deleting and reinstalling the game might reset the account back to a cloud save but since everything cloud saved is constantly updated...might be
stuck at the moment. How was the cloud data deleted?

I think that this link will help answer any and all questions about Cloud saves and how to delete them: Xbox Cloud FAQ

Hope this is helpful.

So it's about BC 360 games played on X1, or?

I never activated the cloud thingy on 360 anyway, There are excellent ways to backup on usb.

And I tried Dirt 3 as BC on X1 but deleted within the hour - slight delays in response to controller - useless.

On X1 I also miss the ability to delete cloud saves, you can only delete local saves.

Don't know why that is.

And you cannot backup locally either which was simple on 360.

MS clearly want to build dependency on cloud services, and OneDrive and stuff like that - making more money charging for that.

Hi, here is a step by step guide on how to remove game save data from your Xbox One and Cloud storage.

How do I delete saves that I no longer need?

You can manage your data for individual games through My games & apps on your Home screen. Here's how:

1.On Home, pull the right trigger , and then press A to open My games and apps.

2.Highlight the game, press the Menu button on your controller and then select Manage game.

3.Scroll to the right, highlight the saved data for your gamertag under Saved Data and then press A on your controller.

4.You'll be prompted to confirm deletion of this game save data:

◦Delete from console will remove the local copy of this save. You can retrieve it from the cloud the next time you play.

◦Delete everywhere will remove your saved data from this console, the cloud, and all other consoles you play on.

◦Cancel will leave your data intact.

Hey there, Fabio!

You should be able to delete the cloud save when you go into your Manage Game section of Sunset Overdrive and delete the save listed there. When the prompt comes up to confirm the deletion, it will ask if you want to delete from "everywhere". You will want
to select this option, and that should delete the save in the cloud.

Are you running into any errors or issues doing this? If so, let me know so that we can dig into it further together.
