How to backup all my files stored on Icloud to a physical storage device?

After an update to Ventura 13.1 all my files disappeared from my MacBook Pro and Finder stopped working.


I would like to get all my files that are currently in icloud onto a completely separate physical storage device. (NOT a Mac)



What is the best way to do this, please?


(I can’t use Finder because it’s hanging and my Mac seems to be constantly synching with Icloud, disappearing files from the Mac nearly as soon as they are created)

Log into iCloud.com and download the files using the web portal.
