First, Ensure the cord is a confirm file transfer cord...Some cord will only charge...I’ve experienced it before when I tried to use the tiny usb cord of my ear buds... my computer ddnt see my phone...

Secondly, After connecting the phone to the computer, Did you select file transfer on the USB option on your phone...maybe it’s on “charge only” option

Use xender, you can send and receive from pc using xender web, xender will create Hotspot, your pc will connect, and you'll put an iP address into the browser and it'll be linked with your phone, no data needed.
Last time I had an issue like that was when I used transsion phones, thought it was my laptop till I switch phone, USB mass storage works fine for a while then stops for no reason.

that was peculiar to your phone, don't make it sound like all Transsion phones are like that, he just needs to get a cord that's suitable to his phone.

In other for me to assist you properly, I'll need you to answer the following;

Does your phone charge when you connect the USB cable from ur PC?

When connected do u receive any pop up notifications about a connected USB?

Lastly, does ur PC show an error, "Unable to install Drive" when connected to ur phone?

Op take your phone to a gsm technician. Period. That port is gone. It is only by luck it'll connect again without changing it.
Re: Help: My Spark 5pro Not Seeing My Computer by d3cod3r(m): 5:13pm On Mar 15, 2022
High quality usb ports have a metal reinforcement to the plastic holding the pins in place. People using quality phones still on micro USB can attest to that. Other brands that like to cut corners will have their users suffering a similar fate as the OP. Make una dey buy better things.

Probably your Phone has revert back to its factory settings and turned off USB Configuration that's why your PC is unable to detect any USB plugged to ur Phone......

Follow these steps to solve the Issue.;
Go to Settings > About Phone/ My Phone > Locate "Build Number"

Tap on it 7-10 times till you see a pop up msg saying "You're now a developer"

Go back to settings and locate Developer options.

Under developer options locate Networking (Heading)

Scroll down to Select USB Configuration < A menu will pop up, select MTP (Media Transfer Protocol)

Lastly Restart your phone (Optional) and connect your phone to your PC. Remember Original USB cable.
