No drive mounts when phone connect to computer through USB

I managed to solve the problem myself, but having taken advice from various sources am unsure which steps are required to fix the problem. Here is what I advise. Keep in mind this is for Cyanogenmod, not stock Android.

As per David Woodword's answer, make sure the correct Windows Media Player Feature Pack's are installed: Windows 10 (build 1511) and Windows 10 Anniversary Edition (build 1607).

On the phone, under settings > developer options > revoke USB debugging authorizations

From XDA-developers forum "download "usb mass storage enabler" form google play" and use it.

When the phone is connected to the computer through a USB cable, the notice in the status bar header appears "Connected as a media device / Touch for other USB options". Touch it and toggle the settings. For example check and uncheck MTP or change to Charge only and back. The first time I did this the app froze.
