Windows 11 is not the most complete version when it comes to communication between a PC and an Android smartphone. But good news, Microsoft is improving its operating system and preparing the arrival of an option to display a phone’s files in File Explorer.

Windows 11 will display files from a smartphone
In any case, this is what PhantomOfEarth, a leaker renowned for the quality of his work when it comes to unearthing the features Microsoft is working on, reports on X (formerly Twitter). In a screenshot, we see that Windows 11 displays a button allowing you to authorize or not access to files on an Android smartphone.
When the option is enabled, files from an Android smartphone are displayed in Windows 11 File Explorer. A dialog box appears to authorize access.
For the moment, Microsoft has not communicated about this future functionality. It is a safe bet that development is continuing and that it will first be offered for testing in beta for certain users before deployment in final version.
