THIS IS WHAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR ME:


  1. Make sure you deinstalled ALL apple software (iTunes, Bonjour, iCloud)
  2. From the icloudsetup.exe extract the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi (by using "The Unarchiver.app" or "Winrar")
  3. After installing the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi launch the Apple Software Updater and install iCloud from the selection menu you will get.
  4. After you rebooted the system (the updater will tell you), you will be able to launch iCloud as you wished.
  5. maybe you have to repair the iCloud installation in Apps & Features but this will also be told by the iCloud.app it self if there is need for.


HOPE THIS SOLVES ALL YOUR PROBLEMS
