  1. Insert one part of the cable into the phone and the other part into the PC.
  2. Open "Computer" on the PC.
  3. Go to the folder with the name of the phone.

  2. Connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network.
  3. Run the app on the phone.
  4. Also open the app on your PC and select the "Connect" option.
  5. Wait until the synchronization is completed.
  6. Open the folder of interest and follow the necessary steps.

You can also use other FTP server applications to connect. To do so, simply enter the relevant search query in the Play Store and all available programmes will be displayed.

Workaround

If you're having trouble setting up the connection due to various problems, whether it's a broken cable or a lack of Wi-Fi, you can go the workaround. This option is suitable for those who plan to transfer a file from Huawei Mate 40 to a PC or vice versa.

In this case, the use of auxiliary tools is recommended. For example, cloud storage. Upload a file to the cloud on your computer and then upload it to your phone by logging in to the same account. You can do the same via email by sending the file to the same box.
