Furthermore, iCloud Drive facilitates secure storage and retrieval of files and folders, with the ability to easily share files via File Explorer. The iCloud Passwords app allows users to conveniently manage passwords on their Windows PC, sync passwords across devices and PC using Chrome or Edge, and generate Time-based One-Time Passwords (TOTP).
