Iphone disconnected problem during backup

I have a problem when I am trying to make a backup of my Iphone 7 and iTunes via USB cable - Iphone disconnected problem - "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". I cannot backup to my computer. In the same time, Wi-fi backuping to iCloud was completed succesfully.

I am using latest iOS 10.3.3 and Windows 10x64 (version 1703, build 15063.483) with all updates and latest iTunes 12.6.2.20 and good ASUS motheboard with good powerful USB 3.0 porrts and original Apple USB-ligtning cables.

I tried to use 3 different cable and 4 different USB ports, with no result.

I tried to reinstall everything, I stopped antivirus, activated "At the Plane" mode, and made all other tricks which I found here, with no result.

I had this error with previous versions of iOS and iTunes as well, but when I had iPhone 5, I did not have this error on the same desktop computer.

iPhone 7, iOS 10.3.3, Iphone 7

Glad you got it sorted. Unfortunately this didn't help me at all, I tried your suggestions. I'll keep hoping that Apple updates & fixes this soon.

Benso888 had the only solution in over three dozen searches for this problem. It was one heavy app... CHEERS TO BENSO888!

Thank you very much, i had found a similar problem with FLAC player app which had special characters on multiple files.

Removing the app fixed the problem for me.

How did you find the offending file? Did you have to go file by file or could you do a search? How did you rename the offending file?

Anyone know if this is still a problem in iOS 11?

I did the same thing. Did you have to recreate any data? Did your app data stay intact after the upgrade?

I did try the iMazing thing and it didn't help. They told me I had an error with something to do with the encryption of the backup and they didn't have a solution.

So far, so good, all the app data seems to be intact. I haven't tested everything though.
