SideSync
SideSync is a Windows software that lets users work with Samsung phones from a PC. There are tools for downloading files from a device and taking screenshots.

Users are able to copy any files from the device to the computer and vice versa. It is recommended to utilize a USB connection for transferring movies and other large items. Users can download Samsung PC Studio for a more robust file sharing solution.
Connecting the devices
There is a mobile version of SideSync that has to be installed on the phone. It is necessary to turn on wi-fi on both devices and connect to the same network. The computer name will be automatically displayed in the mobile app.
In case the aforementioned method does not work you can link the devices via the QR code or PIN number instead. Alternatively, a USB cable can be used for the fast and stable connection.
