    Hey 👋🏻
    Not sure about what can cause this behavior.
    Can you give some details about your system and how the problem looks like?
    Meantime you can try using python version, unfortunately can't promise the problem won't persist there.

    My MacOS is 13.2.1(22D68), and after mac-cleanup, and the files in my folder cannot upload to iCloud automatically, and also cannot download fils automatically, and any service about iCloud cannot normal execution.

    I found out that by performing the following three steps, I can reset iCloud service.

    1. Turn off Wi-Fi first.
    2. Navigate to ~/Library/Application\ Support.
    3. Run sudo rm -rf CloudDocs.

    Therefore, I suspect it might be due to deleting a folder inside ~/Library/Application\ Support. However, the exact reason may require further investigation.
