All trinkets lost after installing on a new computer
Sorry if this reads as unfocused and rambly, but I'm functioning on like, 2 hours of sleep right now and have a lot to do today and I need to figure this out before I lose my progress again.

A couple of years ago, I played VVVVVV on Steam for the first time. I got every shiny trinket and beat the game in Flip Mode. I kinda stopped after I did that, but decided to pick the game back up and complete it this time. When I booted the game up on a new computer, all the trinkets were gone. No Secret Lab, no Flip Mode even. Which I could understand if everything was gone. Weird thing is though, I still had my last story save from the end of my Flip Mode playthrough. When I went back to my old computer, the game was in the same state, none of the stuff I know I already got specifically on that computer was there.

I think it might be because I tried to manually transfer the files via thumb drive before reading that cloud data was supported now, but I want to make sure before I install it on my Steam Deck so I don't have to trinket hunt a third time.

I'm not sure what happened here. All the save files are in one folder (saves/) so unless you forgot to copy some, your unlocks and story saves should be together. As far as I know cloud saves have no issues like this.

That must be the data saved in the Steam cloud.
