File transfer between android devices and Windows 10 laptop

steps for transferring Audio and Video files from Android phone to Laptop Windows 10

 

cannot transfere files between android and WIN10

Hi Mostafa,

Can you walk me through the steps on how are you trying to copy the files to your Windows 10 device. Based on your post, your android phone is showing on device manager. Can you verify if your android device is shown in File Explorer (On your keyboard, press
Windows + E. Then, check if the device is shown).

If the android device is shown in File Explorer, you can manually copy the files to your Windows 10 device by following these steps:

1. On your keyboard, press Windows + E.
2. Double click the file name of your android phone.
3. Locate the folder where the files you want to transfer is stored.
4. Highlight all the files you want to transfer.
5. You can either press Ctrl + C (this will just copy the files and retain the copy on your phone), or press
   Ctrl + X (this will move the files from the phone to the Windows 10 device, this will delete the copy from he phone).
6. Navigate through your Windows 10 device on where you want to store the files.
7. Once your on the desired location, press Ctrl + V (this will paste the copied files to this location).

Please respond to this thread to let me know how the issue progresses. Similarly, if you have more questions, please inform me by replying to this post.
