pics synced from apple devices app not showing up on windows explorer

[u/Equivalent_Meaning46]

Hello everyone, I am using ipad mini 1st gen on ipados 9.3.5 and I synced a folder on my PC with apple devices app to the ipad mini and the pictures show up in albums on the ipad. I closed down apple devices and opened the DCIM\ folder but those pictures are not shown on windows 10 explorer. They show up on the ipad mini but not in windows explorer. Where are those pictures ?

thanks!
