    All you need is OTG cable with usb to micro-usb. You may then use a USB stick to tranfer the photo's.
     
    The other options is to mail you photo's to any of your email account and download it on your PC

    Hello Jharanji,

     

    Thank you for your quick reply, do you also know why Acer did not supplied a OTG cable with usb to micro-usb ? I bought an Micro usb 32 GB, but it is square and does not fit ?? do you know also where to buy a OTG cable ?

    Simple, put both your W4 and your desktop in the same HomeGroup and copy files directly thrugh the network.

    Many MicroSD cards come with a USB adapter. If you have no USB slots then you have a different problem.

     

    (put microSD in tablet, copy files, remove from W4, put in adapter, connect to other device's USB slot. Download files).

    Just realized that most microSD cards come with a standard SD card adapter and from there you need an SD card to USB adapter like this.

    thank you padget for the tip, I bought me already a "StarTech 5" Micro USB to USB OTG Host Adapter M/F", hopefully it will work ? and I can transfer my photos ?

    So now you have three different potential methods:

    1) network share

    2) ad hoc network

    3) flash drive/SD card

     

    one should work

     

    There is another option, RDP, but that gets complicated.
