Why isn't my phone showing up in My Computer?

A

AC Question

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S5
Service Provider: Rogers
Country: Canada

My phone isn't showing up in My Computer when plugged in via USB. I've been using the same cord as always. I've reinstalled the driver and everything is a go but still nothing.

I've just got my phone unlocked yesterday, can this be the reason?

Do you have USB debugging set? If you unlocked the phone, you might have flipped that option on... that will disable your phone as a drive target. Turn off USB debugging and reconnect the phone.

What is the USB storage type set to? MTP, PTP.... Each phone has it in a different spot, but it might be in Settings-Storage somewhere. Or there might be a notification that pops.
