I get this message when I try to use iCloud on Windows 10, starting maybe a month ago:
Upgrade to iCloud for Windows 14.1 failed. Please reboot and try again (Error 101)
I've rebooted and retried, same result. Apple's FAQs seem to indicate they are only on Version 7.x of iCloud, so tbe number makes no sense.
Windows, Windows 10
Hi Gildar,
We see your posting from the Download iCloud for Windows resource. Here's some troubleshooting you might find helpful:
"If iCloud for Windows doesn't download or install from the Microsoft Store
To install iCloud for Windows 11 or later, make sure that you:
For general upgrade and installation fixes, visit the Microsoft support site."
You can check out the full resource that came from here: If you can't download or install iCloud for Windows - Apple Support
We hope this helps.
Take care.
Since my original message began "I get this message when I try to use iCloud on Windows 10,...", the Windows 11 advice is not applicable.
I've already tried every reasonable suggestion I have seen on the Microsoft and Apple support sites. It is unreasonable, for example, to suggest that I backup my computer and reinstall everything simply to access iCloud. If I have to live without iCloud drive, I will simply revert to emailing files to myself to transfer them. At least ICloud email still works.
I never asked for this. I was satisfied using the version of iCloud that I already had when this message started appearing. As far as I can tell, Apple provides no way for me to return to the version I was previously using.
Does anyone know what Error 101 means? That was not listed on either support site.
The best information I could get from Apple Support is that I need to upgrade to Windows 11, but I can't, because my CPU is not on their 'approved' list. That's a whole other issue to discuss on the Windows community site.
Hi Gildar,
Based on the troubleshooting you've completed up to this point, your best bet will be to contact Apple Support. You can use the link here to get started.
Take care.
