Can I restore iPhone from iCloud backup on my Windows PC but not for everything?

You can download your iCloud backup to a PC, but Apple does not provide a direct way to download a full iCloud backup to a computer. However, you can access and download certain types of data, such as photos, contacts, and documents, through iCloud.com or iCloud for Windows. If you need to extract specific files from a backup, you can use third-party software. Below are the steps to access and download your iCloud backup on a PC.

iCloud for Windows allows you to sync photos, documents, and other data with your PC. You can follow the steps below to restore from iCloud backup if you don't want to restore everything from iCloud backup:

Step 1: Download and install iCloud for Windows from the Microsoft Store or Apple's website.

Step 2: Sign in with your Apple ID.

Step 3: Choose what you want to sync, such as Photos, iCloud Drive, and Bookmarks.

Step 4: Click Apply, and iCloud will start downloading your selected data to your PC.

If you need to download messages, app data, or other files stored in an iCloud backup, third-party tools can help.
