I would like to use the Android USB Accessory Mode. This allows to open a data connection between an Android app and an app on another USB device, like a Windows machine. To start this communication, on the Windows machine, an App must start a USB Host mode. For this, it must send some specific data to the Android Accessory Interface, which will be shows as a USB device inside Windows. Unfortunately, on my Windows machine, this Android Accessory Interface will not be shown. This will be identified by a device instance ID of USB\VID_18D1&PID_2D01&MI_.... To show this device, I updated my Windows 10 Pro installation and all drivers. Additionally, I installed a special USB driver from Samsung for my Galaxy A20e. **How can enable the Android Accessory Interface (USB) for my Samsung Galaxy A20e device?**
