Hi

ive connected my Motorolla X Play (android) to my PC and selected File Transfer, but when i see it on my PC, I can only see the internal memory and not the 32Gb external that is in there

under settings and "storage & USB" , the 32Gb card is showing up

how do i see it on my PC as i want to transfer some files across without taking my case apart to take the memory card out

thanks

Have you checked if there is a software (with drivers) for the phone to install first?

no
im on windows 10 and it came up, so i need to install a driver for it?

Are you transferring from the phone to pc ?
As a workaround could you not copy the files to internal memory and then the pc will see them ?
Do it in reverse if it's pc to phone

i was going to transfer to my phone, but i couldnt see the external memory card, so only way i could do it , is to transfer to my phones internal then across (but its too small)
