    Latest updates causing errors with Older Samsung J3 (2016) phone


    I realise my phone is getting a little old, but it serves its purpose for me, and I don't need to update yet! (Coronavirus and having to use QR code apps not suited to my android version to sign into cafes, restaurants and other businesses may change that).
    I haven't had a problem with either the phone or Windows 10 reading from it since new.

    In the past few weeks I have been getting multiple errors (As many as 17, possibly more) when disconnecting the phone from my Laptop.

    There are no "safely remove device options" and I have always just pulled out the USB cable. (I have edited out other taskbar icons in image which is why my taskbar may look bare)

    I am also now having trouble opening images on the phone with Windows Photos, these images can be photos taken with the phone or come from my laptop and all images will open with Windows Photos if they are on on my laptop.

    I have done a complete wipe of my Hard Drive (Twice) and tried 2 Clean Installs of the latest Windows 10 version that I created using the USB Media Creation Tool.
    I have tried numerous times to Repair / Reset Windows Photos. Neither of which worked.
    I have also tried Formatting the Phones SD card using the phones own formatting tool.

    Any thoughts on what I can try next (apart from a new phone or other image software ?)
    Thankyou in advance.

    I am using Windows 10 Pro Version 21H1 OS Build 19043.1110
    and
    Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.3530.0

    I found a new, similar post, concerning an Android device
    Problem with opening jpeg files on tablet/windows 10 and wanted to add that I can view an image once maybe twice and then cannot open it again, I also copied a PNG file to my phone and same thing happens. I wasn't expecting a whole lot of response because of the age of my phone but put the problem out there anyway to see if there was anyone having the same issues.
