Help How to copy music to my honor 5x from my windows 10 pc.

Windows 10 has ridiculous security measures that practically kill drag and drop, copy, paste commands.
I've never found an answer from Microsoft either for this issue. My answer, use any other version of Windows and problem solved
Doubt this has anything to do with Windows 10. My rooted tablet and my S7 works fine with it.

Honor 5X takes a micro-SD. Get a suitable capacity micro-SD, copy all music to that from PC using card reader, put it in your phone. That's how I do it. IMO better that way anyway, having music on micro-SD rather than taking up space in phone's internal storage. :thumbsupdroid:

BTW I use a Mac, myself. :)
This worked great. Thanks.

So I have a Honor 5X. I used a USB cable and plug into my computer.
I have yet to read on this thread why I can't drag and drop files.
Anyone have a solution to make this work?
I'm trying to drag a e-book file from my computer to my phone.

What format is the e-book in?

Try this. Works for me everytime. Download the app for the phone and get the browser app for chrome or firefox or whatever that third one is called. Edge I think?

It's really easy and self explanatory.

When I attach the phone to my PC via the USB cable the phone shows up as CD ROM drive G. I am unable to drag and drop to this location. What can I do?
Win10..¿?
You need to uncheck/remove driver installation block from PC settings or UEFI & install the device's drivers. The drivers are usually in stock ROM and found when dealing with USB Connection settings. Also, some devices won't give access to any storage while USB debugging is enabled. :cool:

This is frustrating. I downloaded the app and its about as useful as my mother in law. How the hell do I use it? why the hell is there a code needed?

Open the app on the PC. Drag file and drop in window. Select send immediately.
On phone. Open app. Select receive. Enter 6 digit number from computer. Done.
