Windows 10 iCloud 14.1 Error 376

My iCloud for windows was previously installed directly from Apple. I wanted to turn on Advanced Data Protection and I was told my Windows 10 computer needed to update the iCloud software to 14.1 from the Microsoft Store. Since upgrading, I receive an error:



This error comes up repeatedly every 10 minutes or so. I tried uninstalling and deleting my iCloud photos folder. I reinstalled iCloud from the Microsoft store and still receive the same error. This is very frustrating and Apple phone support is not able to help.

Windows, Windows 10

Hello bobackz,


We would recommend checking for possible security software issues which can cause sync issues with iCloud for Windows. Let's follow the step below:


1."Make sure that the date, time, and time zone are set correctly on your computer. Learn how to update these settings on a Mac or on a PC

2.Log in to an administrative user account, not a guest account. Learn how to do this on a PC

3.Make sure that you set up Windows Hello. Learn how to set it up

4.Make sure that you only have one type of security software installed. If you have more than one type of security software installed, you might experience performance issues.



Test your connectivity

  1. Check your hosts file to make sure that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with Apple's servers.


2.Test your security software

If you still have trouble after you test your connectivity, your security software could be interfering with your computer's connection with iCloud for Windows or iTunes.

In some cases, it might be necessary to temporarily remove your security software to isolate an issue. Some Internet security apps don’t uninstall completely, so you might need to download and run a cleanup utility for your security software for it to be completely removed.

Work with your security software provider to allow the complete list of ports and services that Apple products use or if you need help with uninstalling their software.

If the issue persists, Contact Apple for support and service

Cheers.

The problem came back on my new profile. This happened after my computer needed to update it's BIOS. Usually, after a bios update, iCloud prompts to login again. I tried logging in, but I kept getting an error that the action could not be completed. I uninstalled iCloud and reinstalled it and was able to login but now the original error 376 is back.


iCloud for Windows is just terrible and Apple will not provide technical support on their poor software.
