iCloud Image sync is not working I left it for 1 day and it seems to be stuck but it still downloading some thumbnails

I got 1Gbit fiber and wired network and live in Sweden, my download speed is around 700-800Mbit/s and upload is 800-900 Mbit/s to multiple europe locations.


ICloud image sync does not let me download 350GB worth of images to my computer using "Always keep on this device".


What is the issue? I tried to download around 500 items out of 15k but same thing happens. I have killed the process restarted the icloud services but same thing happens.


The only thing that works is downloading 1 image at the time but it takes like 5-10 seconds, and it "not possible" to do that for 15k images. It would take around 33 hours which no sane person try to do.


The only thing I can think of is creating a bot to do that for me but it may get stuck after x amount of downloads....


How can I solve this issue?

ICloud Version 14.1 for Windows 10

Windows, Windows 6
