The Witcher and Steam (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt)
The last 2 parts have drawn clouds in Steam, I googled a bit and it seems that in games with clouds, saves are stored differently and they can’t seem to be deleted. so I decided to go through the game from part 1, but will the saves be used as a continuation of the previous parts? I hope you understand
Of course they will. A cloud means that your saves are copied to Steam servers and if you reinstall the game, even on Linux or Mac, they will not disappear anywhere. The game itself also stores them on your computer, as always.

Saves will be used, but if you delete the game without saving them somewhere at home, they will be rubbed.
In my Steam, the saves from the second part for the third were picked up directly from the cloud.

No... and for a long time. I went through the second Witcher once and did not install it again. Although many times I wanted to replay. Therefore, he himself was surprised when, when I clicked "import saves", he gave me a bunch of files from the cloud.

And how could it be seen that they were loaded from the cloud? Because when I clicked import I didn't have any confirmation - successful or not.
Because I definitely don't have any saves left in the system. I played the game 3 years ago. SSD installed last spring. Tolerated nothing.
If the problem is with saves, then it's better to check if you have them at all. Run the second Witcher and see what it finds.
Well, yes, it is checked by the installation, in general, the Steam Cloud is a wonderful thing. I remember playing the Shadows of Mordor, and there I finally had awesome runes, then I reinstalled Windows, of course everything was wiped ... But the game remained, then I installed Steam, went into the game voila ... Everything is in place, my entire profile ... Here I don’t argue this is a good thing ... Saves will always remain ... And at least you completely clear the computer, but the saves will be ...
