After update to MM I can't transfer file from/to USB device using File Commander, Astor or any other file manager,also it is not shown within this apps, I can access contents outside these apps but can't copy or paste any thing!!!
I tried different types of USB storage same issue!!
Did I miss something?!!
Help please my entire world depend on this, can't use laptop every time I need to transfer files..

I got round this problem by downloading a new file manager app - ES file explorer pro. Managed to copy and move files with this.

Are you trying to copy to the microSD?

No, I 'm trying to copy from the device to external USB storage

Have you tried to use the detect USB device button from quick settings?

It's already detected and working fine, but can't find a way to copy files or photo from internal or SD memory to an external connected storage

If you go under settings - storage, it should show up.

Thank for replying..
HAVE YOU TRIED IT?!
solutions and suggestions you are giving are about Detecting and running OTG USB, I have no problem with that at all..
I'm talking about completely different thing
COPY FILES FROM DEVICE to USB storage, previously it was normal with any file manager app, now with MM there's no such option..

Hi @acis610,

I will try to get more information about this.

Prior to upgrading to Marshmallow on Friday i was able to insert my sandisk dual USB flash disk directly into my phone, run the detect usb option and then transfer files from / to it using file commander. Since the update applied i can now detect the drive but no file manager programs can see it, this means i can move no files onto the USB device. The phone allow me to look at the files on the USB device and i can delete from it but not copy to / from. Has anybody else had this issue ?
