Android Central Question

So yesterday I was watching videos on my computer and the device notification kept popping up and making a sound for my phone and I somehow turned it off by clicking something. Now today I need to get some stuff onto my phone using the PC and whenever I plug the usb cable in I cannot get it to show up on my PC!! What did I do and how do I fix this! I have a galaxy s7, using windows 10
 
Welcome to Android Central! Was your phone connected to the computer when that device notification kept popping up?

When you connect the phone via USB to the computer, swipe down the notification panel and tap the USB icon. Is it set to MTP/File Transfer?
 
Yes my device was connected and the pop up that literally shows up everytime i plug my phone in showed up like Galaxy S7 blahblah connect and I somehow turned it off because the sound was annoying me everytime i plugged and unplugged my wire. I tried updating the usb driver that didnt do anything. and when i swipe down the notification panel i dont have a usb icon. it just says that its charging
 
On your PC, go to Settings>Devices>USB​, and see if you can change the default action when you connect.
