How can I turn off the option to store these folders in iCloud? These folders are being excluded by my cloud backup due to some iCloud conflict but I can't turn it off. I can toggle it from on to off, but then the only option is to click 'Cancel', and then it resets.

This is under Settings > General > Store in iCloud. My cloud backup is third party software. I don't use iCloud for anything. When I check the size of the iCloud Drive folder under General, it's at 7.8mb, so basically empty... and definitely not containing the entire contents of Desktop/Documents/Photos.
