    None of this works for me. I have a S22 and Windows 11. Can someone make a video of how it works. Thanks.

    I can't get it to select more than one. I tried the usual method of holding down the shift key. Will only select one at a time.

    Hi ArRios,

    This has been bugging me for a while, too. However, there is a workaround.

    Open your phone screen within the Phone Link app, then open the Gallery and navigate to the photos you want to transfer.

    Now, grab your phone, swipe the screen to turn it on and select the photos you want.

    Go back to your pc and drag the photos from the phone screen to wherever you want.

    You need to hold your mouse button down for a bit before you start dragging to get the drag to start.

    I was able to transfer them in batches of fifty.

    Thanks! That works from my Samsung Android phone to Windows 10. Does anyone know if the limit is 50? If I try a lot more it doesn't work (but no message as to why) but 50 does.

    So, Sam, that is really super helpful and I thank you!

    It is really the old way. I think we are talking about wireless connection here.

    Go back to the old way and connect your phone via USB. I've been doing it that way for years. I have a Note 20 5G and that still works. Then file manager will ask if you want to import photos. You will have to do a little permissions setting if you haven't done it before but after the first time, you can see it in the file manager.
