Work Admin access to my icloud?

I put personal icloud drive on my work computer (windows pc) that I use from home. Can the Work Administrators see what is on my icloud drive?

Hey there Workadminaccesstomyicloud,


We understand you installed iCloud for Windows on your work computer and you're wanting to know if the work administrators would be able to see the contents of your iCloud Drive. We'll be happy to help.


Since some files from iCloud Drive may be downloaded to your actual computer, it's possible they might be able to access those files. It would depend on the extent of permissions they have for your work computer.


With that in mind, we would recommend checking with the administrators to see what they have access to.


In the mean time, you could temporarily turn off or uninstall iCloud for Windows. Use the steps from the section "Turn off or uninstall iCloud for Windows" here: Set up and use iCloud for Windows


Cheers!
