      @@not_albert373 Well, I have been working from home because of the whole Covid thing. I recorded a video on my iPhone that I needed to upload to a desktop computer so I could edit it. In the office it wouldn't be a problem because I have a iMac there. But at home I have a PC. I was having a hell of a time trying to get the iPhone to connect to the PC. It just wasn't working. That's where the massive headache was building up.
      Then I learned about the "files" app on the iPhone, and researched and found this video on youtube. Then I learned how to upload the recorded video to files. And then accessed my icloud account through the web browser on my PC. Finally was able to download the video in full quality to the PC.
