My computer doesn't recognize my iPhone

The mobile device driver is built in to MacOS and can’t be removed. On a Windows PC the driver is installed when you install or upgrade iTunes. You can get it at https://itunes.com or the Microsoft Store. It is free.

Thank you for the screenshot.

Restart the Mac:

I can't make out the wording (no mention of the word "iPhone" is listed). So, start with a restart.

Provide a Screenshot:

You image is no more than a white rectangle. If it is a screenshot, please provide it. If you are getting a message about missing driver, then you need to reinstall the MacOS.

Reinstalling the macOS:

Go Here: How to reinstall macOS from macOS Recovery - Apple Support. Important: Be certain to create a backup of your Mac prior to all of this. That way, you can have something to restore from the Mac from, should anything go wrong with the reinstall. Once reinstalled, try this once more.

OP has a Windows PC, which is screenshot from Control Panel -> Device Manager screen.

OP does not mention which Windows OS version is being used.

Guess turingtest2 -> Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates will help OP.

Use Another Cable:

Try another cable, particularly an Apple brand for trustworthiness, though not required. Don't have one? Ask someone if you may use their's.

Try this Google Search Query: device manager usb iphone microsoft windows site:answers.microsoft.com

Add some more words to the beginning of it (before the word device) and/or use +/- and quotation marks to gather words together to get a more defined answer. Without using punctuation, I get 2,660 results popping up when I search for it (the number is a guestimation, on Google's part.)

You’re going to a lot of trouble when the simple answer is to install or re-install iTunes, which installs the iOS driver. As the OP hasn’t responded again I suspect the problem has been solved.
