Description
Currently, the sync only happens when you launch Retroarch… so any saves/states you create during that session are not synced until the next time. If something happened to the storage device between sessions, then those saves would be lost.
Please could you add a option in Cloud Sync to:
- Sync on quitting RetroArch
- Ad hoc sync from the UI (useful for testing purposes)
Thank you :)

Research direction
Start by locating the existing Cloud Sync flow and the RetroArch quit and UI entry points. Confirm how launch-time sync is triggered and how UI actions are exposed; done means sync runs on quit and can be invoked ad hoc, with behavior verified for saves and states.
