iCloud Stops syncing on Windows

I have found that iCloud would stop syncing with my Windows computer. No real reason that I can diagnose.

I read somewhere that simply reinstalling iCloud would fix the problem, and it did.

But it stops syncing every couple of weeks. I keep reinstalling it and it works again but it goes out of sync again in another 2 weeks and I keep repeating the process of reinstallation.

I’m wondering if there is a better solution than me having to reinstall iCloud every 2 weeks.

Has anyone experienced this? Is there something else I can try rather than keep reinstalling?

I have this same problem but mine doesn't even last 2 weeks. It would maybe work for a couple days at most and then just stop. I've made it so my PC never sleeps, hibernates, turns of the display, etc and I even went and got a 2GB google fiber connection that is wired directly to my PC to eliminate potential disconnections from the wifi. I finally am giving up because I can't get answers from anyone at Apple other than "Just let it be over night...". My solution is going to Drop Box or even OneDrive. I've never had these issues with those apps which honestly hurts pretty deep considering I've been an all Apple user for over a decade. I just can't get around not using a PC also with work anymore, so I have to have a 2 OS solution that works consistently.
