Thank you. My default usb configuration was unchecked since my phone was updated. I watch many videos and yours was the only one that helped me.
Thank you! I knew it was easy. Thank you for being so normal, not all you tube crazy flashy and talking too fast. This is a good, basic, helpful video.
Haha no problem! That's the aim, thanks for watching!

Thank you , it helped
Brilliant - Clear and accurate, Thank you
No problem! Thanks for the kind words, glad I could help!
Your video was great but do you have any idea how my S9 suddenly started to display the empty folder after 2+ years with no problems? An update install perhaps? Thanks again and happy to have found you.
Dude, why are you navigating from the phone-specific dropdown menu? I've never seen such a menu option on an android and I can't find it now.
My phone settings were a little different and I had to make changes as follows: 1/ Settings 2/ System 3/ Developer Options 4/ Select USB Configuration 5/ select: PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) and this worked for me.
Worked perfectly
I can access files on my phone from my PC but can't copy files to phone. Help
hi, within the Developer options, my phone does not show Default USB configuration. What else can I do? My folder in Windows 10 is showing "This folder is empty". Thanks, great video
thank you sir for this help!!!!!!!!!!
You’re welcome, glad this helped!!
The problem I'm experiencing is that file transfers from Windows 10 PC to Android phones are not completing. They are "finishing" before they're finished so only 350 MB out of 1 GB is making it to the device. I'm not sure if this is related to updating Windows 10 recently. File Transfer mode set, not doing anything out of the ordinary, just dragging the folder or files I want to transfer and it finishes prematurely all the time. File transfers to external drives and USB media is unaffected, its only my phones I can't transfer files to. Never had this problem before now... Any ideas?
THANK YOU
Thank you!!
thanks bro 😍😍😍😍
Thank you
Thanks♥️♥️
You’re welcome, glad this helped!
You saved me hours upon hours of frustration with bluetooth upload failures. Thank you.
Still the same problem tells me every folder is empty. Not sure why
Thank 😊
appreciated
hey question does your phone files stay on the computer after you unplug the cable from it?
Not unless you transfer them over, and in that case they would be duplicates.
@@TropicalTech i was at my cousins and he opened my dcim(photos) and he transfered a vid i wanted for a school project. what would i need him to do to get rid of the photos file then?
oh btw he added the vid to my dcim but i didnt see him take any files out he just unplugged the cable and closed the file explorer
God bless you :)
Thanks alot
No worries, glad I could help!!
cheers mate
No worries!
@Tropical Tech Only games in chrome and other thing works smoothly without any lag
Yeah that makes it sound like a PC performance issue. Although there could be some software built into your PC to improve game performance maybe thats conflicting?
@@TropicalTech So if u I get a new GPU this beep sound will disappear? because I don't have GPU in my pc my GPU is Internal.
@@hussamabukhalaf9650 Its difficult to say as it might not be the actual cause but gaming on an integrated graphics card is going to cause a lot of stress on your PC, so it could be that causing the lag but theres no way to know for sure. If you say your PC is old, adding a GPU will just cause a bottleneck so its probably not worth it unless you improve other parts. My beat guess going on what you've said is that theres some software conflicting with your games. Try looking in the GPU software or on your PC for any sort of gaming enhancement program etc.
@@TropicalTech hi I am back and I found the problem it is from the headset I tried to play without it and there is no lag at all do you know how to fix the headset?
@@hussamabukhalaf9650 Not sure but that is very strange. Do you have another headset to try to see if it happens with that one, at least then we can see if its that specific headset or all of them. If you don't have another headset to try, it could be some audio software causing the problem.
I did this... still not working
all well - unless your screen is dead ..
why does my pc not recognize my phone
Sorry, my phone has no "System" or USB Charger option listed at all. Thanks anyway.
Didn't work. I already did these things before I even came upon this video.
I m trying to copy and paste all data phones but I failed, an error occurred
How much data are you trying to transfer in total?
@@TropicalTech hello, you got the point. Since I m trying to make a full phone storage data copy, the tranfer flow it's around 21 gb
@@mat2574 If possible I'd recommend transferring individual /groups sections separately e.g. photos, videos, files. There's a chance there's a certain file causing an issue or it's too much to transfer.
If there's a problem with one of the groups you copy at leas you'll be close to identifying the cause.
cool
Thank you!
Scroll down from the top of where? You lost me on the very first step.
