Save game/Autosave doesn't work

[Hita]

Hello, I've just bought South Park: The stick of Truth from Steam. Installed it on my (C:) drive , started the game, everything worked fine. Created a character , played a bit, tried to save the game, but both Save Game and Load Game are grayed out which was odd, but I assumed that the game is going to autosave. After playing for about an hour, decided to reboot the game to check if the autosave is working. It was not. Since then I've spent a lot of time checking forums and googling for a fix for this issue. I'm running Windows 11.

The save game directory is this one:

C:\Users\%USERNAME%\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\South Park - The Stick of Truth\save

and inside the "save" folder is a file called "steam_autocloud.vdf"

I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling the game, installing it on other drives, nothing helps.

Any help?

TL;DR: Installed game from Steam, run game, can't save/autosave, gotta start new game every time I run it.

 try verifying the integrity of your game files. To do this, open Steam and right-click on South Park: The Stick of Truth in your library. Go to properties > local Files > verify Integrity of Game Files.
