Save folder differs between computers so Steam Cloud sync does not work

Issue description

0skymaster0 is having issues on the Steam Forums with Steam Cloud Sync:

On my laptop the game installed itself automatically saved to the following location:

C:\Users\Myname\Documents\Captain of Industry\Saves

On my gaming PC the game installed itself automatically saved to the following location:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Captain of Industry\Captain of Industry\Saves

I tried deleting, re-installing, manually syncing. If I copy the file manually to the PC location from the Laptop the game will not start either...

No I don't run ransonware protection on either computer.

Expected behavior

Saves to be synced properly between machines

Game version

v0.4.12

Isn't this same as Save game location changing every other day?

On my PC I get the Steam Cloud Sync error sporadically, too. But I do not have saves in the Steam path, all are in my Documents path.
