uploading a file to icloud

I have a file that is 67.86 GB that needs to be uploaded to my icloud. I pay for 2TB of icloud storage. The file says it is ineligible to upload - I have plenty of space available - help?

See the following from iCloud Drive FAQ - Apple Support

You can store any type of file in iCloud Drive, as long as it's 50GB or less in size and you don't exceed your iCloud storage limit.

How are "Both of those things are in place" ?

50 GB is the maximum file size.

Your original post stated that the file that won’t upload is 67.86 GB.

Got it - so regardless of how much storage I have never option of uploading larger than 50 GB - any suggesting on getting the file off of my imac onto a windows computer without uploading it to youtube (don't want to edit quality of video) and it doesn't fit on a flash drive either

Thank you
