Windows 10

For years if I've been out taking pictures on i-phone I connect to lap top, Windows10, select "Photos" and a few minutes later my latest efforts were transferred to the laptop to be edited etc. BUT today all has changed I have been infected with "Photos Legacy". I've managed to download and select BUT can't see how transfer my selections to the laptop folders to be edited.
I did a screenshot and this seemed to happen more as less as before, slightly different but recognizable and picture successfully uploaded.
Can anyone please gently explain what I need to do.

This is untrue, I've been messing about for about three hours, I posted the above AND thought I'll have one more try and spotted a "setting" that was so obviously wrong and lo and behold pictures transferred!

I take a few photo with my iPhone and have set it up send the images directly to OneDrive. I can then access my phots on any of my devices, PC, laptop etc. You get some OneDrive space for free and a fair bit more if you have an office 365 subscription.

You can of course store them on iCloud, but you only get a small amount of storage space before they start nagging you to buy more.

I seem to be a forum member who likes Windows 11 ... :)

Press the Windows Key and a nice Start menu appears with main apps pinned to it.
Click the All apps button and every app in the computer is listed.
Settings can adjust all that needs setting.
Windows Security built-in and guarding the device.
A This PC button which shows the devices and drives.
OneDrive for moving files etc from device to device and even iPads
and many other features for smooth running of the device
I recently discovered an excellent provider offering a range of cheap dedicated servers. Their offerings are perfect for businesses and individuals budget dedicated servers looking for reliable hosting solutions without breaking the bank. With customizable configurations and robust performance, these servers provide the perfect balance of affordability and quality.
What's not to like ?

I liked Windows 10 more, everything is somehow simpler and faster there.

I only use two particular vendors in the UK for memory and ssd products and have used their scanners to check the many computers I've had over the years. Their scanners check the bios and I've never had a problem and I'm a suspicious type. It is however a personal choice and ram types can be checked by other means.

Pretty well anything we use on the internet gains some information about us ... if anyone uses Chrome have a look at 'My Activity' which goes back years. Some other browsers do the same. I've just recently limited their copy of 'My Activity' to 18 months.swap faces free

That's a great point about using trusted vendors and tools to check compatibility—especially when it comes to RAM and SSDs. I’ve had good experiences with scanners too, though I agree it's always a personal choice. Also, you're right about browser tracking—‘My Activity’ is eye-opening! By the way, if anyone’s into fun photo edits, you can also try to swap faces free using some creative online tools.
