Hello,

I'm trying to transfer photos from my Android to my PC, but I've been staring at a window that says "Calculating the time needed to copy the files" for a good hour now. The download isn't happening! It's urgent, since my smartphone is full!

Hello,

This doesn't tell us how this transfer is done: dedicated application, phone control via Wifi or USB...

I don't know if the problem also exists on Android; on Windows, copying is not possible if there isn't a free buffer space to allow it.

Another cause is that the phone's processor might struggle to handle loading so many files at the same time.

In both scenarios, the solution likely involves not doing a mass copy, but rather in steps, a certain number of files at a time, which are then deleted from the phone.
