2. Uninstall the previous iCloud for the Windows version

If you’re attempting to install a more updated iCloud version to replace an older version, uninstall the outdated copy of the software first. It’s also better to do that with a third-party uninstaller that removes leftover files, folders, and Registry entries. It is essential to remember that standard, simple uninstalling doesn’t remove all this data. Not only will leftover files prevent you from installing an updated version of your app, but they will also take up storage space for no reason. Uninstaller tools are easy to use. Most have an interface similar to Windows’s Add or remove programs panel. You get to a list with all the programs on your PC and select which one you want to uninstall. Then allow the uninstaller to complete the process, reboot your PC and try to install iCloud again.

3. Turn Windows Media Player on

4. Run the Program Install and Uninstall Troubleshooter
