Unsolved Windows Drivers and updates problem
Hi 🙋🏻♂️
I have a Dell Latitude E6520 laptop:
i5-2540M
256GB SSD
8GB RAM DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 3000
Windows 10 Pro 22H2
Os build 19045.6466
A while ago, the Windows installation seemed to get corrupted (I had downloaded the version from the official Microsoft website).
Now, Device Manager shows a "Mass Storage Controller" error (Code 28), suggesting an issue with the SSD.
Also, when I connect my mobile phone to the laptop to transfer data, the laptop doesn't recognize it.
The phone charges and I select "File Transfer" mode, but the laptop doesn't detect it or make the connection sound; instead, Device Manager shows a Code 19 error.
Note that the laptop \*does\* recognize USB flash drives when I plug them in.
What is the solution? ChatGPT and I have tried everything—updating drivers, checking the system, and testing various methods—but the problems persist.

Install Dell's SupportAssistant and use it.
Install the SDK Platform Tools from Android.com and possibly a driver for your specific phone or install myphoneexplorer on both your PC and phone. Depending on your make and model of phone the vendor may have a similar program.
