    USB tethering of iPhone 7 doesn't work on Windows 10

    Hi again

    Yes, iOS is up to date and wifi tethering works fine, it's the USB tethering that's the problem.

    I uninstalled the iPhone in device manager as you suggested, restarted the laptop, then reconnected the iPhone via USB and I now have a new Network adapter appearing in device manager called Apple Mobile Device Ethernet and no unknown device under Other
    devices.

    USB tethering with the iPhone is now working - hooray!

    There is still no sign of a Mobile Device Support folder in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple though so I guess I just got lucky. If it fails again, I'll try cross posting
    in https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/using_iphone as you suggest.

    Many thanks for your help.

    USB tethering of iPhone 7 doesn't work on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Can anyone help with this please?

    I followed the steps here to set up USB tethering of my iphone to my Win 10 laptop but it doesn't work: How to Use Your iPhone's Personal Hotspot to Tether a PC or Mac

    I have the latest version of iTunes installed on the laptop and my iphone appears as connected but it does not appear when I click 'Show available networks' in the network status window.

    In my Device Manager, it also appears as 'Unknown device' under 'Other devices' (maybe this is the problem - if so, where do I find a suitable driver to update the missing driver?) and as Apple iPhone' under 'Portable Devices' . I can't see anything under
    the 'Network adapaters' category that suggests it is connected.

    Many thanks

    Jon
