Even the simple act of photo transferring appears to be a bit complicated when you are using an iPhone and a Windows PC at the same time. This tutorial will show you several methods to transfer photos from an iPhone to a Windows 10 PC.<\/p>\n<h2>Import with Windows Photos<\/h2>\n<p>This method requires a lightning-to-USB cable. Although the latest iPhone model only comes with a lightning-to-Type-C cable, we highly recommend getting a USB one as it will come in handy for situations like this.<br \/>\n1. Connect your iPhone to your computer using the cable. Click \u201cTrust\u201d if there\u2019s a pop-up window on your phone asking \u201cTrust this computer?\u201d.<br \/>\n2. Click \u201cAllow\u201d if your phone asks \u201cAllow this device to access photos and videos?\u201d.<br \/>\nMake sure that your iPhone is unlocked during the whole process.<br \/>\n3. On the computer, click the <strong>Start<\/strong> button and go to Photos.<br \/>\n4. Click <strong>Import<\/strong> \u2013 <strong>From a USB device<\/strong>. Your iPhone should appear as one of the options on your screen.<br \/>\n5. Follow the instructions. It will take some time for the actual transfer.<\/p>\n<h2>Transfer with File Explorer<\/h2>\n<p>This is similar to the first method and also requires a USB cable, but you will not need to open Windows Photos.<br \/>\n1. Connect your iPhone to your computer using the cable.<br \/>\nMake sure that your iPhone is unlocked during the whole process.<br \/>\n2. On your computer, open <strong>File Explorer<\/strong>.<br \/>\n3. Select \u201c<strong>This<\/strong> <strong>PC<\/strong>\u201d from the list on the left. Your iPhone will appear in the main window.<br \/>\n4. Double-click your iPhone.<br \/>\n5. Double-click the <strong>DCIM<\/strong> folder. Inside, there will be folders with names such as 100Apple, 101Apple, etc. Your photos are stored in these folders.<br \/>\n6. You can transfer photos by copying them to other locations on your computer. If you delete any photo, it will be removed on your iPhone as well so be very careful when copying or moving photos.<\/p>\n<h2>Transfer using iCloud for Windows<\/h2>\n<p>For those who prefer a wireless way, here are the steps.<br \/>\n1. First of all, check if you have enabled iCloud services on your iPhone. Go to Settings \u2013 <strong>Photos<\/strong>, make sure <strong>iCloud Photos<\/strong> is turned on.<br \/>\n<picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cleanerone.trendmicro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/webp-express\/webp-images\/doc-root\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iphone-photo-settings.png.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/cleanerone.trendmicro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/iphone-photo-settings.png\" alt=\"iphone photos settings\"><\/picture><br \/>\n2. On your computer, download and install iCloud for Windows. (https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/HT204283)<br \/>\n3.
