I have a Motorola / Android phone.
Getting files to copy from my PC to the phone has been incredibly arduous. The first issue I had was that some lint was in the USB input/output of my phone. I have made sure I check this before I try to copy files. The second issue was in Windows 10 Advanced Power Options, USB Selective Suspend Setting was turned ON, so now I make sure it's OFF. But having fixed these two things (the latter of which is a really dumb feature in W10 that isn't obvious at all to find yourself), I still can't copy files to my Android phone. It was working for some attempts in the past year or so where I could copy all my music. But now when I try to copy my ~3000 files (~70GB) it just copies the first 40-80 of them and the Copying window just disappears and it gives up.
I'm baffled by this and also incredulous that it is so damn hard just to copy my music from one place to another.
I don't know if it's an Android issue or a Windows 10 issue.
I seem to recall when I used Arch Linux in the past, this issue was not present - it would just soldier on and copy everything. But that was over a year ago.
Anyone know how to fix this Windows/Android behaviour?
