What is an MTP Device Windows Driver?

MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) is a protocol used for transferring media files (such as music, photos, and videos) between a computer and portable devices like smartphones, digital cameras, and tablets. The MTP device driver enables Windows to communicate with devices using the MTP protocol. Without the correct driver, Windows won't recognize or interact properly with the MTP device, meaning you may not be able to transfer files, sync media, or even see the device in File Explorer.

MTP is often used by devices like:

• Android smartphones
• Digital cameras
• MP3 players
• Tablets
• Other media devices that support MTP file transfer
