cant copy photos from photo gallery to external drive on SAMSUMG S21 ULTRA

Post by *killerw »

i took many photos everyday,

if i choose photos in gallery and choose "copy to album", there's no external drive at all.

if i do the copy inside total commander 3.2, it works, but i can't choose specific date's photo.

and if i choose photo in Gallery an click SHARE - choose TC, then select external drive.

it pops up "WRITE ERROR EROOR WRITING TO TARGET FILE CONTENTxxxx SEND ERROR:2"

what happened to this error?

Thanks for your report, I can reproduce the problem with a USB flash drive and Galaxy S10e. Copying them within TC works.

i read a reply from samsung on google play, it said path for sd card access has been changed on android 11.

Is that why?

The path to the SD card didn't chane with Android 11, at least not on my S10e. But the path to external USB flash drives has changed, they can only be reached via virtual folders now (storage access framework).
