iCloud on Windows 10

[Neuk_]

Apologies if this is in the wrong section...

I make use of iCloud to store personal files and access them on my work laptop running Windows 10 Pro. I cannot download and as such open any file and no amount of restarting, signing out, signing in, deleting, reloading, etc. solves the issue. I can see all my folders, I can see all my files but cannot download, open or access any of them. I have Googled and Googled and Googled but nothing has helped...

Any ideas?

I fired up my 2012 MacBook Pro but not even that is updating as it should, might require a lengthy sync as I haven't used it in a long time.

And out of interest sake, are your files accessible as normal using your iPhone or iPad and via the web on icoud.com?

I can access files via my iPhone, I struggled for a while to download one file from iCloud via the web but eventually managed to do it. I am trying on my old MacBook but struggling with it as well, partly since it is so old and slow and partly because from what I have read, iCloud is a horrendously slow cloud storage solution.

I can finally see my MacBook is syncing but I did log in and out of iCloud and restarted it.
