Apple releases iCloud for Windows 7.8.1, works out iCloud/Windows 10 incompatibility issues

Wednesday November 28, 2018. 12:15 PM , from Power Page
Following up on our previous report of incompatibility issues between Apple’s iCloud and Windows 10 build 1809 following the October 2018 update, Apple on Tuesday pushed an update to iCloud for Windows, bringing the app to version 7.8.1. The update comes after users reported major compatibility issues between iCloud for Windows and the latest Windows 10 October 2018 update, affecting things such as Photos syncing and many other features.
After the kerfuffle, Apple and Microsoft began working together to resolve the compatibility issues. Essentially, users trying to install iCloud for Windows on the latest Windows 10 build would see an error message, while those who already had the app installed experienced numerous issues with Photos syncing and more.

Microsoft even went as far as blocking users with iCloud for Windows already installed from updating to the Windows 10 October 2018 build.
The newly-released iCloud for Windows version 7.8.1 seems to fix issues caused by the Windows 10 October 2018 update.
Apple also updated its Windows for iCloud support page with the following:
iCloud for Windows 7.8.1 requires Microsoft Windows 7 or later; Outlook 2007 or later or iCloud.com (for Mail, Contacts, Calendar); and Internet Explorer 10 or later, Firefox 30 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later (for Bookmarks).
