When I connect (via an USB cable) my Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 tablet, my notebook (under Windows 11) doesn't detect such a device so that I can't see it in the Windows Explorer. I have tried to download the Sumsung Smart Switch software but it was useless.

So ... what am I doing wrong?   I would say that the solution is on the Device Manager USB drivers but I don't know how to do exactly.

Please help me! Thank you very much in advance

The issue has been resolved by myself. Here's the solution

1.- In the My Files settings uncheck the option "Manage Files over Wi-Fi only"

2.- Now connect with an USB-c cable to the notebook under Windows 11

3.- Then on the tablet screen will appear a message saying "Allow  acces to your files over the USB connection?"  

4.- Tap on Allow and that's all!

5.- Now in the Windows 11 Explorer will appear the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 tablet and double clicking you'll access to all files stored in the tablet

I hope this solution will be very usefull for all of you with similar connection problems.
