Lumia 950 does not show up as a drive when connected to my PC anymore

[swanlee]

This used to work as this is how I got custom ringtones. Now I plug in my Lumia 950 and it does not show up as a drive so I can't drag and drop files. the WDR tool recognizes it as connected and device manager show it is connected fine.

Anyway to fix this?

In order to find out what's wrong you can try:

- A different cable.
- A different USB port.
- A different computer.

Otherwise, use the app Easy transfer, it's a lifesaver when you don't have a USB cable.
Make sure both the phone and the computer is connected to the same WLAN. Start the app. If you see a QR code in the app, tap it and you'll get the phnoes IP address instead. Enter the address in you computers web browser and you'll be able to access most of the phones folders.
