PS Plus 'Upload Saved Data To Online Storage' - How do I untick/uncheck this option?

In 'System Settings' > 'Automatic Update' How can I untick/uncheck the 'Upload Saved Data To Online Storage' inside this menu?

 

I can untick/uncheck all of the other options but not this one. What should I do to be able to do so?

Please use plain text.

I don't think it's possible. Why would you want to?

The feature is set for each individual game save.

The only saves I put into online storage are copy-protected saves that I can't get off my PS3 to put on my own hard storage. So I use online storage for those and as for the rest I put them on my own hard storage to know where they are and not have any Sony server side problems.

 

What is the point of having a tick/check box if you can't alter it?

If you are using the facility, why would you want to switch it off? I'm not sure why there is a check box.

Saving to online storage doesn't stop you making your own backups for the non-copy protected saves. Surely it's better to have multiple backups.

The PS3 backup & restore facility covers copy protected saves too (if restored to the same PS3).

I like the other options in the list (automatic download game updates, etc). However as for uploading save data, I can do that myself and would rather choose which save data for what games I want to upload.

Set the option by individual game.

Either set 'Yes' for just your copy protected games or 'No' for everything and copy the chosen ones manually.

That's what I do at the moment. I don't mind. All I wanted was the automatic updating/downloading of patches for games.
