iCloud it's that thing that if you haven't a Mac you can't download your own app files either in iOS or Windows.. I had to run a VM and search for an hour for 40-50 family photos...

Um I thought all photos were automatically saved to the Photo's app meaning you can access them via the iCloud website

yeah lol. Sign into icloud.com and just get whatever you want.

That's all powered by CloudKit now i believe, and CloudKit has a web api (that's how apple built icloud.com to begin with i'm guessing.)

@mzgaljic First I have to say sorry for my bad English if I make some mistakes, The photo I needed were stored in an app folder on iCloud, this app folder is hidden either from iCloud.com or iCloud Drive app from mi iPhone. To enter this hidden app folders you have to do some sort of workaround with aliases and shit on a Mac or an app that does this work for you. That's why I needed the MacOS VM, i'm not that stupid, I have already tried to enter that folder on iCloud.com or from iCloud Drive

@rosijanni As I wrote before, that folder was "hidden" from iCloud.com and iCloud Drive

@teoval8 Your english is fine, don't apologize! Just a simple misunderstanding...i thought you were trying to retrieve photos stored in the photos app. Glad you found your pictures. 👍🏼
