Error 0x80070141 when copying photos or videos from iphone xr

The error 0x80070141: the device is unreachable is not exclusive
to iPhone. Some Android devices, such as Samsung Galaxy, Lenovo, can't import files to PC as the message pops up: the
device is unreachable

To solve this error when copying files from your iPhone or other device to your PC/computer running Windows 10, here are steps to follow

1. isconnect your iPhone/iPad from your computer
2. Go to Settings on your iOS device
3. Open Photos and scroll to the bottom
4. Under ‘Transfer to Mac or PC’, chang efrom Automatic to Keep Originals (“Automatically transfer photos and videos in a compatible format, or always transfer the original file without checking for compatibility.”)

Now connect again the device to the Windows 10 computer and copy/paste the files again; it should work fine now!
