Apple releases iCloud for Windows 13, includes new features, including Strong Password Generation tool

If you use iCloud for Windows, this should come in handy.

Apple on Wednesday released iCloud for Windows 13. The new version adds support for Apple ProRes videos and Apple ProRAW photos, so files in these formats can now be accessed from Windows PCs via iCloud.

All participants of an iCloud Drive shared file or folder are now also able to add or remove people, and Apple has introduced support for generating strong passwords using the iCloud Passwords app.

Apple introduced the iCloud Keychain password manager app back in August, allowing Windows users to access their iCloud Keychain passwords for cross-device functionality. This allows Windows users the same password generating technology available for Safari on iOS devices and Macs.

Per Apple’s support document, the update also addresses several security vulnerabilities.

iCloud for Windows 13 can be located and downloaded via the Apple Software Update application.

If you’ve tried the new version and have any feedback, please let us know about your experiences in the comments.
