Default How to do a clean wipe of TWD on steam?

Hello, I am having recent troubles with getting TWD to load episode 2, and I want to do a clean wipe, save files and all. How do I do this? Thanks!

Are you playing on Mac or PC?
Are you running the game in any compatibility mode, if so, which one?

Please try verifying your game cache files.

Disable steam cloud for TWD (In Steam, right click TWD and select "properties". Open the tab "updates" and remove the checkbox from "Enable Steam cloud synchronization for TWD").

Then delete the savegame folder.

Normal locations:
Win Vista/7: %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead
XP: %USERPROFILE%\My Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead

Exceptions:
If you run TWD in compatibility mode for win95 or win98/me it might save to:
%PUBLIC%\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead

Then start the game again. It should create a new empty savegame folder.

It's a PC thing, so it doesn't concern you.
