Hello, I've been searching for help on this for a month or so now here and various other places and can't find my specific issue anywhere, hoping someone can help or at least have some ideas to point me in the right direction.
I can backup my Samsung Galaxy Note 9's photos and videos (from Phone/DCIM/Camera) to my own PC easily after connecting them via the USB cable and hitting allow and all that on my phone, but my phone is still filling up because for the life of me I can't backup my screenshots.
Most were taken with the s-pen's screen write function, but some were taken with the palm swipe method or the volume down + power button method... doesn't matter, all of them are seemingly invisible to my Windows 7 PC when trying to find them in explorer. They're not in the obvious place (Phone/DCIM/Screenshots), which just acts like it's loading a ton of files for several minutes and then ends up showing 0 items... and I can't find them anywhere else, either. I'm not using any SD cards, nor am I uploading anything to a cloud service or anything like that, just want to oldschool transfer all my data to my computer via USB cable and start fresh with tons of room available. Oh, and if I go to a screenshot in my phone's Gallery app and view details, it says it's located in Internal Storage/DCIM/Screenshots with name format "Screenshot_2019MMDD-HHMMSS_ProgramName.jpg". And yet... invisible!
Before getting this phone in 2018, I had a Note 4 for several years. While the photos and videos were in the same exact directory, the screenshots were in a whole other spot in the file structure. But I've looked everywhere, I've even just copied entire folders to my PC in the hopes that the screenshots would somehow get transferred, but... to no avail. Any help/ideas? Thanks in advance.
