To do this you need a USB cable compatible with your Huawei (better if it is the original one), so that the device can be detected by the computer once you have connected it. The device should be detected as an external drive (as if it were a USB stick).
Step 2: Check the notification panel on your Huawei phone and connect as "MTP / File Transfer". Then, click on "Ok"When a message is displayed that says"Allow USB Debugging".
Step 3: Make sure your Huawei phone driver has been successfully installed on your computer. So, go to "This PC / My Computer " and access your device from the list of portable devices.
Step 4: Locate the folder DCIM, because that's where all the photos are saved.
Step 5: Select the desired photos, copy and paste them on your computer. Or you can just drag and drop them from your Huawei phone to your computer.
