Can't load photos from LG phone to Windows 10 with usb


Hi all, hope this is the right place to post this question.
I have a basic phone a LG S301 I used to plug the phone into the USB port and it came up as an external drive so I could browse and select photos from the phone.
Since 10 upgrade I can no longer do it. I can do it with bluetooth but it's a bit of a faff, the USB was a lot simpler.
Any suggestions as to how to get the phone to show alongside C and D drives please?
Thank you
