my icloud verifications fails on my PC and I don't know why?
I am updating my icloud. I am at the verification step and it says "verification failed" after I've added the apple ID verification code. I don't know why? What to do?

Wondering if the Windows version you are using on your PC needs updating to be compatible with iCloud.
Eg: Apple support's article: System requirements for iCloud - Apple Support
says:
"iCloud requires an Apple ID, an active internet connection, and up to date software."
(if needed: Learn how iCloud operates in China mainland)
Recommeded:
PC
- Microsoft Windows 11 or later*
- iCloud for Windows 15
- Outlook 2019 or later
- Firefox 92 or later, Google Chrome 100 or later (desktop mode only), or Microsoft Edge 100 or later
* 64-bit Windows (May 2019 Update or later) is required to install iCloud for Windows.
