How do I stop iCloud login requests on my PC

Everytime I log in to my PC Desktop, iCloud displays a dialog box requesting a log in. I have disabled it in the Startup list and it does not exist in my Notifications list. Nevertheless, it still shows up.

It's almost as if the engineers from Microsoft came by and showed you how THEY made it difficult by forcing Cortana on everyone and took a "regedit" to fix it.

I have attempted most fixes available on the net but would really like Apple to focus some attention on this to make this both optional and have no notication without explanation to the users when the iCloud box pops up at login.

Windows, Windows 10

wwniii,

Thank you for getting back to us. Sorry about the typos, we try, but we are human and every so often a typo will slip through.

With your iCloud app, was it open when the computer was restarted and is the computer set to open apps that were open at shutdown? This sound like settings for your Windows system startup settings.

If the issue continues after checking your settings, we suggest contacting Apple Support for more specific assistance.

Regards.

The problem is not that I can't log in, the problem is that iCloud is coming up after I login TO MY PC, not the app. I just do not understand how this started happening last week when I made no changes to my boot startup or anything like it.

Do you need me to log in TO THE iCloud app? Then what? How about some steps? Do not send vague, incomplete, instructions before we can go to the next step. Give me ALL the steps I need in ONE form. This response from you shows me a sort of half . . . . hearted effort. Show me your best shot to complete this issue in one reply. Is that possible? I am greatly disappointed in Apple for allowing this kind of crap to happen . . . this same kind of thing is what Microslop is well-know for.

As an aside to you, how about a spell check program for you and your guys (check your first line of your message to me - I had to read it 3 times}. I guess you don't get the iOS benefit of word correction where you're at.
