When connecting a USB cable from my Samsung phone to either my desktop or laptop the phone is detected, but says "This folder is empty".  So, not able to download photos, etc.

One YouTube video suggest going to setting then developer area to ensure transfer files is turned on. However, my Ultra24 does not have the developer option on settings.

In the settings menu, go to 'About', and click on where it says 'Build Number' 7 times. This will enable the developers options to become visible. Go in here and select 'Default usb configuration'. Change it to the desired setting, and it should work as intended. If not, then you may have to enable usb debugging, and or change the 'Mobile Hotspot and Tethering' settings within 'Connections' in the settings menu if applicable.

In order to do any file transfers via USB, Auto Blocker must be temporarily turned off in Settings > Security and privacy. Once you are done, don't forget to re-enable Auto Blocker.

When you plug in device, pull down from top and click on the usb banner, change to MTP. If the option is not there, your not using a data cable.
