Nexus 6P. Data transfer issues

[Android Central Question]

My 6P is on Android 8.0, plugging into USB to windows 8 computer, there it's no option to transfer files. As if the computer doesn't even recognize the phone. I just bought a 2017 Silverado, the truck radio is supposed to give my phone an icon to install info onto the phone but the radio doesn't see the phone. I saw how to fix this phone but nothing for 8.0 phones

Welcome to Android Central! When you connect the phone via USB, swipe down the notification panel and tap the USB icon. Make sure MTP is selected. If you don't see that USB icon, then the cable might be faulty -- try a different USB cable.

Regarding your truck -- are you talking about Android Auto?
