  1. How do I make my computer stop trying to transfer files to my phone?


    Every time I plug in my phone my computer tries to transfer files. No matter how many times I change it on my phone it stays the same when I plug it back in. I've been spending hours trying to find this out but haven't figured anything out.

    :)

  2. Transferring data from phone to computer

    Once I attached the phone to the computer via USB, and set it up for file access/transfer, I can see it in my list of hard drives.

    I simply click on the hard drive entry for the phone to open the contents, navigate to the folder, and copy files off.

    transfer files between computers on a home network

    I don't know why this is so hard to do but I would like to transfer files between a desktop PC running windows 10 pro and a laptop running windows 10 home. I would like to transfer files in both directions. Both computers are on the same home network and are connected wirelessly.

    Could some one provide either specific step by step instructions on how to do this (I googled and found a countless list of instructions that don't work)

    or a link to a reference.

    Thanks,

    I don't know if this is possible but it would be nice to see the computer sending the desired file in the explorer file manager of the computer receiving the desired file and then under the computer see a list
    of shared files and folders.

    Again, this seems like such a reasonable way of sharing files and folders. Shouldn't there be a simple way to do this?

    Error ox80070057: the parameter is incorrect while transferring the files to phone

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand your concern, we will try our best to help you.

    • What is the make and model of the phone and computer?

    • Can you transfer files from other devices to computer?

    I would Suggest you the following steps if you are unable to transfer files from any external devices.


    Method 1:
    This problem can occur if the decimal symbol is not set to '.' (Dot). This is common in languages and locales other than English (United States).
    a. Press Windows key + X and select Region.
    b. Click the Formats tab, and then click Additional settings.
    c. In the Decimal symbol field, type. (Dot), and then click OK two times.
    d. Restart the computer.

    Method 2:

    If the issue happens with all external devices then I would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the USB port driver and check.

    Hope this information helps you. Kindly post back with the updated issue for further assistance.



    Thank you
