How to download selected photos from iCloud to Windows 10 In this article, you’ll learn how to download multiple photos from iCloud to a Windows 10 computer. In fact, there are two methods you can use to accomplish that. But not only that, it also means you can access your saved files on other iOS devices.īy backing up your photos on iCloud, it’s possible to download them on your Windows 10 PC. This way, you have a backup in case you lose your device. I hope this is useful - and saves people going through what I had to go through over the last few weeks.If you are using an iPhone or iPad, the iCloud storage service allows you to save your photos, videos, and other important data on the cloud. I suggest you set 'update apps automatically' to 'Off' in Microsoft Store.

Be careful not to allow automatic updates from Microsoft Store - as this may try to replace this version of iCloud for Windows with the latest version again.

This gives you the previous version - with the Photos options you expect - and it works on Windows 10.

If you have the option - choose *not* to install updates automatically. Go to that link and download / install this. Under 'Here's what you need' there is a link to download a version of iCloud for Windows for Windows 7 and 8. It should also remove any spurious 'iCloud Photos' folder links in Windows Explorer's navigation pane - which many of us had, as a result of the issue.

I've spoken with Apple Support, and their view is there is a new incompatibility between the latest iCloud for Windows, and the latest Windows itself (in particular OneDrive, which is now the engine behind iCloud for Windows). This does not seem to work for many - who are left with the status 'updating.' without end (I was one of them). The new online help says 'photos will automatically sync' between iCloud and Windows (without the options to 'download' or 'upload' that were there before). Also, you will have seen the online help from Apple, and some responses to queries in this community, still often refer to the previous version, and so is not much use. If you are one of these people, you will have noticed that the photos options have changed in the latest version - and the options to 'download' or 'upload' have disappeared. Many people (including me) have posted to this community to say that their photos are not syncing with iCloud, when using the latest version of iCloud for Windows (version 11), and that they used to be able to sync with the previous version.
