How do I transfer photos from the iPhone to the PC?
If you want to save your iPhone photos or simply browse through the photo albums on a larger screen, you can transfer pictures from your iPhone to your Windows-powered PC. In the past, this was done most easily with iTunes for Windows. While Apple’s media center is discontinued for Mac since the end of 2019, Windows users are still able to use iTunes to synchronise their content.

Transfer iPhone photos to PC using Windows Explorer
Any iPhone can be connected to a Windows-based PC like a USB device. From there, the photo files can be easily displayed and downloaded. This is how it works:

Step 1:  Connect your iPhone to the PC via a USB cable, where the iPhone will then display the message “Trust this computer?” Go ahead and confirm this message followed by performing a two-factor authentication if necessary. The iPhone now appears like a USB flash drive in Windows Explorer:

Step 2: To transfer the images from the iPhone to the PC via Windows Explorer, you can either directly select the drop-down menu (in the left bar) or (double) click on the iPhone in Windows Explorer in order to open the file structure in main window:
