Enable the option in Developer Options, but it should be on by default if you bought the phone new.

A) Did you use the cable that came with your phone? B) does your computer have a USB-C port?  C) if your computer does not have a USB-C port, you will need a USB-A/C OTG adapter.  Also, your USB port needs to be USB 2.0 or higher.

You have to go into settings then devices and phones then turn on file explorer visibility. Search for how to "add phone to file explorer Windows 11". In Windows 11 there are extra steps to get access to your phones storage.

If your computer isn't seeing your phone at all then check the USB settings on the phone, it could be set to charge only or you might have Auto Blocker turned on.

You could also try installing Smart Switch on your PC and see if that finds your phone.
