also here is the prove: https://i.imgur.com/klbjiJH.jpg[^]
and here is a quote from the page I am reading right now: " Step Three: Download and Install the April 2015 “Servicing Stack” Update You can’t simply install the Convenience Rollup after installing Service Pack 1. You have to first install the April 2015 Servicing Stack Update first. Don’t ask us why; ask Microsoft. "

As I said I can't test it for you, and I can't see your computer - so I'd have to guess. Did you install SP1 first?

I re-checked on the official website and re-installed all my 'PRIME B450M-A' motherboard drivers. I always suspected these drivers are doing some monkey bizniz. But still, after the "Convenience Rollup" patch, after the oficial and slightly updated drivers of my motherboard, still no change in the bunch of errors in my Device Manager. It is exactly as before. No change. You did helped me. I start to believe is a motherboard driver problem that I have here. Specifically for w7. Although I did not had absolutly any kind of errors in Device Manager in my last (auto-updated) version of windows7. It is either: 1-Microsoft didnt share everything; or 2-the motherboard drivers concentrated on w10 and w11 but w7 left it float like a useless label. Damn im pissed off. This is my best guess the problem might be. I'll have to take the fight to them, if they will even answer to my questions... hmmm. But we reach some conclusions and for that I thank you! It's better for me to think in tandem with someone else. So thank you for sticking with me. If you think on some other solutions... please lay them down. It is always a good thing to have more options.

- First of all, I am sorry to post this very unrelated question here, but I literally have no idea where I can get a normal answer on the web, for this kind of problem. If you can indulge me, and try to 'debug' this problem with me, would be awesome. I will understand if nothing can be done, when we will reach that point. I personally reached that point myself. That's why I come to you, my old c# friends. - So... - Because win7 is no more taken care by Microsoft, all its auto-updates are no more. I clearly remember after I freshly installed a new copy of windows7, the auto-updates were doing their magic and all my usb drivers were functioning with one single click. Now, that 1 click function is no more. Now, all my usb drivers are errors in Device manager. And what is worse than that, something in windows, is not recognizing the device usb even after I installed its original driver. Why? Remember those (KB2908783XXXXX) packages? from Microsoft ? I believe it is a package somewhere, specifically for windows7 that is taking care of this USB problem I have here. But I dont know which it is and it would be the easy fix with it. - I was as thorough as I could. I already installed everything listed here manually: Nvidia drivers and motherboard drivers also updated to their latest versions. 1. windows6.1-kb976932-x64.exe (Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB976932)(is officially removed from Microsoft website)) but I install it offline. 2. Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 for Windows 7.exe 3. IE11 (originally w7 comes with IE8) so IE11 is an update to that. And I managed to update it, manually. 4. a bunch of: visual c++ redist 2010 to 2015 sp1 x86.exe - I still got a bunch of errors in Device Manager: - I had a nasty error in Device Manager for "MTP" (Media Transfer Protocol) and I believe I solve it by installing: AMD USB 3.0 hub and host controller driver for Windows 7 (64-bit) Now in Device manager there is no MTP error present. But Im not completly sure though. I am skeptical. I installed the latest version of it, from 2022, that's why im skeptical. Even with it installed, I can not see the directory tree inside the Phone as I was able to see before. And it should ! - Now I have a "CDC Serial" error left. I actually find an 'Android_CDC_Driver' and from that package I could install the actual driver which is this file: "usb2ser_Win7.inf". I install it, it worked, I got rid of the "CDC Serial" error in the Device Manager, I actually got a new Port in there. All seem to be fine, r
I killed the communication between my PC and my Android phone a while ago. The phone won't work with my portable, nor with my desktop. It lost them both ad the same time, so it wasn't the fault of the PC(s) - and I know how I did it: I am not a big fan of smartphone apps. My eyes are too old, my fingers too large, and touch screens everywhere refuse to react to my fingertips - if you see someone at the coffee machine tapping, tapping harder, tapping again, ... then it could be me. Same with my baking oven. And my desktop radio. I set up my Bluetooth PC keyboard to talk to the phone, but that works at home only. I decided to clean up my phone, so that it would have only the apps that I "must" have. Not the other hundred or so apps that somehow have made it into my phone. I killed off every one that I didn't remember ever using. Obviously, I removed one too many. I haven't yet gotten around to fixing it, but assume that a complete 'restore to factory settings' will do the job - crossing my fingers for factory restore still being available even if OS updates no longer are. If not, I have another reason for replacing my six year old Galaxy S7 edge with several cracks in the front glass :-)

I used to have a similar problem until I realized that the cause was that I wasn't keeping my finger stationary during the tap. If you make contact with the screen and don't keep your finger absolutely stationary, it will assume you mean to start a drag and drop operation.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Update: This is after 5 days. I didn't do anything important these days, I believe I installed 1 or 2 software and 1 or 2 games, and I guess at least 10 restarts of PC in the last 5 days from when I installed that patch from you. - Today I input the usb into my phone again, and for my surprise it appear on the phone "usb PC connection" and on my actual PC, in device manager the things are the same, nothing appear or dissapeared, but the content of the phone is now visible!!! Before, when I come with the problem, nothing was visible inside the folder of the phone. It was all white. Now is back to normal. https://i.imgur.com/mBf0r3c.jpg[^] I have no logical explanation. It just worked. But why exactly? What is the trigger? Maybe that update was still updating my windows, after a couple of PC restarts? It's the only thing I can think. Welcome to the weirdness of windows world. I felt responsible to bring the good news to you, because like me, you are a technical guy who likes good results. Have a good day.
