Photo sync issue

[Rumblee1]

I downloaded pictures to my Samsung file app. I've tried everything, but can't seem to get them to Google photos or Samsung gallery. It looks like they copied over, but do not show up. How can I put them into Google photos?

Can you figure out the actual directory those photos were saved to? Go to that directory using the My Files app and make sure there's no file there called ".nomedia" (which would instruct the system to ignore that directory when scanning for media to add to the Google Photos or Gallery databases).
