Move iPhone data to Windows PC
How to extract iPhone data and move it to PC?
Hi everyone,
I want to extract data from my iPhone (photos, videos, documents, etc.) and move them to my Windows PC. Looking for a reliable method.
iPhone 17

I’d use Apple’s built-in options first.
For photos and videos, connect the iPhone to the PC, unlock it, tap Trust This Computer if asked, then import with the Windows Photos app or File Explorer:
Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone or iPad to your Mac or PC - Apple Support
For documents, check where they’re stored. If they’re in iCloud Drive, use iCloud for Windows. If they’re inside an app, use that app’s export or file-sharing option.
An iPhone backup on Windows is good for restoring an iPhone, but it won’t give you normal folders of readable files.
