Been playing a game on my primary PC at home, and also on my laptop. I was able to switch between the two at first, but now the sync on my laptop is no longer in sync with my PC, and they carry two separate set of saves - the latest saves from my PC just won't transfer over to my laptop. Tried deleting the save folder and resyncing, but it just creates the same old saves again, despite that I've gone to my PC and seen it sync there multiple times (thankfully not overwriting my new saves with the old saves stuck on my laptop).

Any ideas?

Get a USB drive - cost next to nothing - do a copy paste. Cheap, simple, not relying on third parties.

Yeah, but this is supposed to work. It's for the support team as much as it is for me. Of course it would be easier to just transfer files, but that's not the point.

Did you already contact GOG support? What did they say?

I'm going to pick up the torch on this one because I'm having the same problem.

My troubles are happening with Grim Dawn AoM. I'm missing a character/save progress on my PC at work vs. my PC at home.

arguably it is easier to let the software do it for you, and keep both computers synced. USB copy-paste requires more work, and you need to do it each time something changes (not to mention finding out where all files are...). auto-cloud sync is easier, you do not need to do anything at all.
