What is MTP Device?
The full form of MTP is Media Transfer Protocol. This is the file transfer mode, which is used to transfer files to and from the computer by the Android phone at a faster rate by connecting the Android to the computer via USB.
Reasons for MTP device not connecting to Windows 10:
Most people don't think about the process that goes on when an Android phone is connected to a computer. They simply plug in a USB to the appropriate ends and want to start transferring files.
Since all this process happens due to the activity of different drivers. The phone automatically installs the drivers that are needed to establish a connection with the PC. And Windows 10 in PC also installs the drivers that are needed to establish a connection with the phone. Although some drivers are enabled, some are automatically disabled.
However, sometimes, the phone doesn't show up on the computer even after plugging it in with USB. When you open File Explorer and This PC, the phone's internal storage either doesn't show up as a drive or isn't visible at all. Sometimes, your Android's internal storage is shown, but clicking on it results in an error message. Since the reasons for MTP USB device driver failure are the following:
- MTP USB device not installed,
- Invalid INF file,
- Code 19 error,
- Code 28 error.
If you are using a laptop or PC and using windows 10 in it, then all these USB drivers are lying in it, they may not be installed. So they have to be installed. Here I am explaining how to connect MTP Android device to laptop or PC while correcting MTP device's INF fine error and code 19 issue.
