Thanks to all who offered suggestions. I am now able to transfer files to my phone from the PC.

Thanks for your suggestion, Helmut. That appears to have worked... the default config choices were not grayed out, and I was able to change it to TRANSFER FILES. I will test this out tomorrow.

Thanks for the suggestion, Cereberus. I enabled the developer options, but the other choices were still grayed out, even after restarting. Is there a specific setting that I might be missing? I think I'm going to call Verizon support and see what they have to say.

Thanks for your suggestions Idgat. I found the settings page you referred to, but I was unable to change the setting from charging only to file transffer. All the other choices were grayed out.

Thanks for your response, FreeBooter. I have looked in the Settings for the Samsung Galaxy, in the Connections and Connected Devices, as well as searching for "access" and "permissions" but could not find a setting to give the PC access permission on the Samsung. How to do this?

I get error messages "USB device not able to transfer files" and "Connected for charging only" when connecting Android phone to PC. I have Win11 25H2. Version 10.0.26200.7171. Device name KYsGeekom Processor AMD Ryzen 7 6800H with Radeon Graphics (3.20 GHz) Installed RAM 32.0...

Thanks for all the suggestions. 🙏 To all who asked for error info, I will try the iso/Rufus method and report on the success or failure info. Ken

Antspants, seems like you're saying that the hardware requirements have changed for 24H2. I've been running Windows 11 for several years.

Thanks for your suggestion, Winuser. Due to problems on the HDD that I don't want to spend hours trying to track down, putting a fresh clean install on the SSD is the way to go. I don't want to duplicate the problems on the new SSD.

Thanks Kari. You have answered my question. So I don't need to use up 3 licenses to have MS365 on my desktop, laptop and Surface Pro4. I guess that explains why all three devices access the same 1Tb OneDrive. I suppose that I could use another of the 6 licenses using a different email...

Thanks for your suggestion, but I'd rather not clone the HDD because there are issues on it that I don't want to spend lots of time trying to track down. It's easier and quicker to just do a clean install of Win10 and then install apps as I need them. I have Acronis Cyber Protect which has a...

Thanks for your suggestion, but I don't want to clone the HDD because of some issues I can't resolve. Rather than spend endless hours trying to figure out what is causing the issues, I would like to start over with a fresh clean install of Win10. The main reason for putting in the SSD is not...

Thanks. I'll give it a try.

Thanks. I will try that idea out.
