Hello, I have a moto g stylus (2021) and I'm trying to transfer photos and videos to my PC over usb. I plugged my phone in and set the usb connection to both file transfer and ptp and neither of them allow me to see pictures on my phone. If I select SD card I can see pictures that were saved when I had the card in a previous phone but I can't find the pictures on my current phone. I've also looked under the internal shared storage of my current phone. Am I missing something or is this a "upgrade" from google that forces you to transfer photos using google drive?
 
Welcome to Android Central! In Windows File Explorer, what are you clicking on to look for pics on your phone? Are you navigating to the /DCIM/Camera directory?
