I want to do a factory reset on my PC but I don't want to lose my progress of TW3. I have backups of my Documents/The Witcher 3/gamesaves folder and I believe cloud saving is on. After I reset and re-download the game, is there anything else I need to do other than copy the saves over? Will it automatically load everything I had?
I just want to figure this out before I try!

Backing up the savegame folder should be enough as stated here.
If you use Galaxy and turned on cloud saving, you probably don't even need to backup and restore the savegame folder, because the client should do it automatically.
