Hello all,

I have a question about iCloud for Windows. I'd like to have my iCloud available on my File Explorer but not locally - that is, I don't want iCloud to download anything for "offline availability".

I can see there is a handy "free up space" option which basically sets everything to remote. However, whenever I view a file, iCloud downloads it (which is very much understandable!) and then stores it on the PC.

Yes, I could just select "free up space" every now and then. But is there an option to set up iCloud so it never stores files on my PC?

Thank you!
