Hi, I tried posting this on a different thread, but I thought maybe a separate one would be better. I am trying to copy the contents of a 32 GB SD card from a ZTE Z815 to a Dell Inspiron PC. I have an adapter for the SD card, but I'm not sure which PC slot to use, or if there even is one for it. Judging from the oldest software on it, I think it's a 2012 PC. I would like to include some photos to show you what I mean, but I don't know how.

It really depends on the type of adapter. Most that I've seen are either a USB connection or one that the micro SD card slides into to let it be read as a standard SD card like this:

I'm still not sure it imported everything. I pressed control + a, as it said, but if it's really chronological, as it seems to be mostly, then there must be some missing. I don't have time to check it all now, but I did notice that some newer pictures are toward the top and some at the bottom. What gives? Also, if I have some photos in albums on SD, what happens to them? How do I plug in the camera for next time?
