    Hi Rick,

    I'm Christine, a Windows user like you. I'll do my best to help you.

    Looks like you're getting a popped up of iCloud on your startup.

    This usually occurs when it's enabled on Startup Settings.

    To disable it, please follow the steps below:

    Press right click the Start Menu and choose Task Manager, then select the Startup tab and right-click iCloud and select Disable.

    Restart your device and it should not popped up on your startup.

    Please let me know the result. I'll be happy to assist you all the way until it's resolved.

    Thank you,

    Christine L

    Hi Christine,

    I also have this problem, except that it pops up less than a minute after I cancel it - I can't get anything done!

    I checked on the start up but none of the i-cloud tasks are enabled at all. Do you have any further suggestions?

    Thank you,

    Sheila T

    hi Christine,

    Before I recv'd your kind message I already deleted iCloud for Windows from my PC.

    the problem then went away.

    thanks,

    Rick C.

    have the same problem on windows 11. if i close the icloud window it reopens by itself if i minimize the window it takes me back to the log in screen and have to log in (2 factor) all over again. if i cancel the login it asks again every minute or two. if i open task mgr and end all icloud tasks task it reloads after about 2 minutes. icloud works flawlessly on my wifes windows 10 machine. 3 hours with elevated support and they have no clue why or how to fix it so far. everything is up to date uninstalled/reinstalled it and still a no go. guess whos getting another call back tonight. oh btw i had the same problem 6 months ago. fixed it by deleting icloud for windows. just have to upload files manually.

    Hi Christine, I followed your instructions, but iCloud is not enabled on my start up apps. I’ve restarted the laptop numerous times. I cannot sign in to iCloud when it does pop up. I’ve change the password a couple of times and that doesn’t help. Every time I enter my iCloud password, I get another pop-up that reads, “action cannot be completed“. Verification failed. So I’m at my wits end now. I may have to just delete it completely off of my computer. Any suggestions?
