    iOS is the operating system that is used on iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches. It only runs on those devices. Not sure what you are seeing in iCloud for Windows setup but the following may help: Set up and use iCloud for Windows - Apple Support

    If that doesn't help you may want to reply with the exact wording of the message and more details about where you are in the setup process.

    You won't be able to set up iCloud for Windows unless you have an iOS device. Since its purpose is to let you sync content between your computer and your iOS device there isn't any point installing it if you don't have a device to sync with.
