As far as I know there is a way to connect from Win10 system directly to an Android SmartPhone through Wifi.

The Android system should be mounted (=visible) afterwards as drive in Win10 File Explorer.

How can I achieve this?

Using Third-Party Apps: - Some third-party apps enable wireless file transfers between Android and Windows. Apps like AirDroid, ES File Explorer, or Pushbullet allow you to connect your Android device wirelessly and manage files from your PC. 3. USB Tethering: - Another method is to enable USB tethering on your Android device and connect it to your PC via USB. - Once connected, your phone should appear in File Explorer as a USB drive. 4. Microsoft Your Phone App: - The "Your Phone" app allows you to link your Android phone with your Windows 10 PC wirelessly. - After setting up the app on both devices, you can access photos, messages, and notifications from your Android device on your PC. 5. FTP Server Apps: - Some Android apps create an FTP server on your device, enabling wireless file access. - Install an FTP server app like "FTP Server" on your Android device and connect to it via an FTP client on your PC. Choose the method that best suits your needs and device capabilities to establish a wireless connection between your Windows 10 PC and Android smartphone for file access.
