  4. Also open the app on your PC and select the "Connect" option.

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.

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 Sony Xperia Z1S to a PC or vice versa.
