Cloud Game saves not found using EA app

I started playing under origin on a different computer but have to use another for now.  Loaded the game using EA beta app and saves are not there

    @kaptkaos888  If you never enabled cloud saving, EA servers wouldn't have any of your data on hand.  But you can manually transfer your saves from one computer to another.  They're saved here:

    Documents\Bioware\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Save\MEx\[character name and number]

    You can transfer the entire folder for a given character to the new computer, and probably the entire ME1/ME2/ME3 folder it's in.

    Tried to start a game (ME:A) and the app asked if I wanted to use local saves or the cloud backup from another machine where I was for the past four days.  As I've done a hundred times before, I ticked the button for last night's save, but the game launched into a random save from 2019.  No other saves are after 2021.
    The app doesn't seem to have any functionality about cloud saves, or I'd try to restore from the cloud again.  It's never been a problem before.  Restarting the machine didn't help.

    I won't be able to get back to the machine that has the actual latest saves for almost two weeks.

    Am I just SOL until then?  Is there anyone to blame for this except EA?

    If there is no one that can send you your last save per email or other means, I am afraid so.
