Hey mordaskyt,


It appears that you're able to fully install iCloud for Windows on your computer. Check out this article to see if it might help: If you can't download or install iCloud for Windows - Apple Support


If the issue continues, you could try uninstalling (as seen in the steps below, from this article Set up and use iCloud for Windows - Apple Support) and installing again:


"Turn off or uninstall iCloud for Windows

  • To turn off iCloud for Windows, open iCloud for Windows, then sign out. 


If you want to uninstall iCloud for Windows, remember to make a copy of your iCloud data and save it on your PC. Then sign out of iCloud for Windows on your PC, and follow these steps:
