On Windows, saves are in AppData LocalLow FuturLab PowerWash Simulator SaveData under your user profile. The default profile folder is named 0 and contains Player.sav plus per job WASHMAPS files.
steam_autocloud.vdf in SaveData tracks Cloud state and can cause sync faults after updates. Preferences live in SaveData Preferences under a futurplayerprefs file and are separate from career saves.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install a shared 100 percent save?
Close the game and pause Steam Cloud. Back up SaveData, then place the shared Player.sav and job files into your profile folder such as 0. Relaunch, check Free Play, then reenable Cloud if sync stays clean.
How do I fix Steam Cloud sync errors?
Exit game and Steam, back up the PowerWash Simulator folder outside LocalLow, then remove TIMELAPSE folders, stale WASHMAPS files, or steam_autocloud.vdf as advised in support threads. Relaunch once to let the game rebuild sync state.
