    Honestly thank you so much! I've been trying to move my files for ever and I watched a lot of videos but this was the only helpful one! There was just a slight difference for me maybe because of the update, when I pressed on copy I didn't have the menu bar. I simply had "copy here", so I was really confused, turns out you just have to go back and press on USB 1 and then press on "copy here".

    Moved, (not copied) picture and video files that I wanted to keep from a relative's Huawei Android phone (and files that she wanted removed to save space) onto a flash drive using the otg cable, and double checked while still attached that the files were actually on the flash drive. But when I got home and tried to view and transfer the flash drive files onto my Samsung tablet using the otg cable and Samsung files app, they're not there on the flash drive- and also show only a little bit of memory used on the flash drive, but not enough for all the pictures and videos I moved there. Is there some compatibility issue, or were these files lost?
