Hello Feebee0609,


Thanks for the question. I understand you want to download some videos from iCloud to your PC.


Setting up iCloud for Windows was a good start. You should be able to download videos using the steps below, from the link titled Set up and use iCloud Photos on your Windows PC:


"Download your photos and videos from iCloud Photos

New photos and videos you add to iCloud Photos will automatically download to your PC. You can also download your collection by year when you follow these steps:

  1. Open a File Explorer window.
  2. Under Favorites, click iCloud Photos.
  3. Click Download photos and videos.
  4. Choose the photos and videos you want to download and click Download.

Your photos and videos download to the location you set in iCloud Photos Options."


This link has another suggestion that might be useful: Archive or make copies of the information you store in iCloud


"If you want to download a few photos or videos, use iCloud.com to download the most recent version of photos and videos. Just go to iCloud.com and open the Photos app. Then select the photos and videos you want to download and click Download ."


I hope that helps. Take care.
