  4. Importing photos from my Android mobile. When it searches and finds photos it freezes

    Problem importing photo's from android

    I have tried to import new photo's from my android Samsung galaxy note3 into Photo app in W10. The program searches and locates XXX amount of pictures however when I select import nothing happens. The app just closes down. I have searched in File explorer/
    This PC/Pictures also but there are no new photo's. Also I have been unable to edit or remove photo's or pictures that were on my PC before installing W10. I keep getting the following message;
    Couldn’t delete

    We couldn’t delete one or more of the files. Another app might be using them, or you might not have permission to delete them.

    Any suggestions?
