MTP Drivers problems with Windows 10 after last Windows Update

[hknoener]

Hi, all.

After the last big windows update, my Galaxy S7 MTP connection stopped to work. It was working like a charm before. Now the driver is not recognized by Windows and there's no way in hell to transfer a file via cable from my PC.

Here are some shots:





There's no KIES anymore, tried Smart Switch from Samsung, didn't work because my Windows 10 is version N, without Media Pack.

Strangely I can't find over the internet any mention to this problem.

Anyone there to give me a hand on this?

Tried updating the driver?

Uninstall that unrecognised one if it lets you first

It's possible it's not the phone driver causing the problem too, chipset/USB?

Also try this program "Ghostbuster"
https://ghostbuster.codeplex.com/

1. Disconnect phone
2. Right click an entry of each section and choose "Add Class"
3. Once all sections are highlighted, hit "Remove ghosts" at the bottom right
It might restart the program again as Administrator without removing them first time around, if so just hit remove ghosts again

Reboot the machine and connect the phone

Thanks for your reply.

I've tried this driver before, it didn't work. It's also quite outdated (2015).

Ghostbuster was a nice touch, I didn't know this one. It has not fixed the problem, but it's another tool to try in the future problems that I face. I will try to find a different computer to connect to.

In the meanwhile, I'm relying on Resilio/Airdroid sort of solutions, but Wifi is a lot slower for files over 4GB, which are usually my kind of transfer.
