Windows 10: Cannot Uninstall iCloud From Windows 10 0x80073cfaj

Hi,


My name is Juan and, after a very long-winded and tumultuous career with iCloud for Windows, I am trying to just reinstall fresh since there was a recent update; however, there really is no trace of iCloud except for in Settings > Apps. When I try to uninstall from there, I get the following error:





I can't seem to find an uninstaller anywhere because the version of iCloud that I initially downloaded was from the Microsoft Store, so any other copies of an update or a reinstaller are unavailable for use. Everything must go through the Microsoft Store. When I search for iCloud in the Microsoft Store, I get this:





I've tried the many methods listed online for help with this problem, including going into Powershell, but I'm at a loss now. If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated!


Also, iCloud is not accessible on my PC. It's as if it has already been uninstalled.
