A quick test - here's my sequence of events upon connecting my Windows 10 laptop to the Note - both devices running normally...

1) connect cable.
2) the 'three-pronged' USB symbol appears in the top bar of the Note's screen and a beep sound is heard from the laptop as the connection is made.
3) going to file explorer on laptop to look for the Note - Note appears under the 'this pc' section as 'note' with a nice icon - under this level there's 'internal storage', beneath which is the main (top) folder-list of the Note - see attached image.

moving over to the Note,

4) tapping/touching the usb symbol simply brings up the battery/wifi/bluetooth/setting/volume menu, as usual - the usb symbol doesn't 'do' anything except inform you of the connection it seems.
CORRECTION - tapping the symbol does bring a box with the file-transfer option - I missed it somehow.....
5) the laptop's files aren't visible on the Note, but the Note's are visible on the laptop - so the laptop must I think be used for the transfers either way...

So-far that's it
