Hey, I've got a problem with my iCloud. It downloads staff without my permission, it does it on its own and downloads files that should be only available online on iCloud not on my MacBook memory. Is there any reason for that? Or any solution not to download everything on my MacBook?
Thanks
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.5
iCloud is primarily a synchronization service, not offline storage. Your files will automatically download. If you elect to optimize storage, the files will download unless space becomes necessary on your device at which point your oldest/largest files will offload in favor of the cloud only but will download again should space become available again

You can turn off iCloud Drive for the time being this will stop syncing of files from iCloud.com to your Mac , but this is just temporarily , you won't further utilise iCloud feature and add files in iCloud .
That's exactly how iCloud works. It keeps all of your documents in sync across all devices.
I don’t think so, it should be available to download, not automatically be downloaded
It’s not helpfull unfortunatelly. I need access to the rest of files in time
Yeah, but it worka a little bit freaky, it downloads files until my disc space exploads on my device and I can’t do anything
And not to mention about using max of my internet package
