I use Amazon as a backup and it stores raw files in native format (at least DNG, TIFF, ORF, ARW, and PEF) It also stores video files and xmp sidecar files (those are not unlimited storage). It may not be able to display those raw files in native format but it will archive them.
Once again, I could be wrong on this, but a DNG and a Tiff may be uncompressed files, but I don't think they are considered RAW...honestly, I'm not familiar with the other formats you mentioned.

Nope...they do raw. My prior computer uploaded raw to Amazon just fine. The odd thing is that my computer is brand new...so there should be no issue.
well that's good to know, hopefully it'll help the original op. Again, my original reply was just conjecture on my part being that I'm not using Amazon for storage.

Windows, of any version, uses a registry to store info about the files and services, etc. that are needed by any given program to operate correctly. Uninstalling a program does not always clean the registry of the pointers to files, etc. that the previously installed program used. Restarting will clean some of theis stuff from the registry but not all. That is how a trial version of a program knows that you had it previously installed and had used up your 30 days of free trial, for example.
Anyway, if I have a problem, after uninstalling, I will run a registry and fille cleaner program. There are many available. My personal go-to products are the free versions of Wise Registry Cleaner and Wise Disk Cleaner. I cllean the registry, then clean out the useless files with the disk cleaner, and then do a final run of the registry cleaner to clean our any remaining pointers to files that had been removed.
These programs can be found at: https://www.wisecleaner.com/products.html
There are many free programs there, so make sure you find the exact names I have given here.
Just something to try. --Richard

A couple of possibilities
1. Did you upload CR3 files on old compute?, each raw may have the same info, but file format is different requiring Amazon to change their programs.
2. Canon might have made a very minor change in the CR3 format which does not affect their software, but can affect others, had this happen with spectral software at work.
3. Possible, but unlikely do to computer, computers generally do what software says to do with respect to reading files, files are just Bytes to be translated by software.
