My Desktop Computer want recognize my RCA Cambio W101 Tablet.(Tablet has Windows 10) Everywhere I look tells me that all that a need
Is a Micro-USB TO USB Cable. Plug the Micro-USB into my tablet and my USB into my Desktop, but it will not see it so that I can transfer Data,Music, and Photo's from one to the other.

Can someone please help. I may not have some setting set correctly drivers installed or do I need app from the store ?

Don't want to waste any ones time. I sent RCA a email about my problem. Just checked my email and I hope this will also help others with the same problem. I should bought a cable that has a USB to a USB. Not the Micro-USB on one end.

Thanks anyway,

Tommy

Unless you are trying to use something like Windows Easy Transfer software to move files from the desktop to the tablet, the desktop will never "recognize" your new tablet. Android and iOS phones/tablets will generally show up as another disk drive in Windows Explorer when plugged into a USB port of a Windows computer but it won't work that way using a Windows tablet.

What are you trying to accomplish? You should be able to network the desktop and tablet together as you would any other Windows machines then move files back and forth over the network.

    Retired in 2015 after working in the tech industry for 41 years. First 10 years as a Technician, the rest as a programmer/software engineer. After 1 year of retirement, I was bored so went back to work as a Robotic Process Automation Consultant. Retired for 3rd (and final) time in 2019.
I'm not very great with computers so first question is I would be wasting money by buying a male USB to male USB cable. So, should I get Windows Easy Transfer software.

Transfer pictures, data, music, or video's

Can you post me a tutorial or a link that would show/guide me the best or easiest way to transfer the Network way you're talking about.

Sorry that I'm a pain, but I'm trying and have learned a lot from people on this Forum and I'm thankful for the help.
