Apple products don't work in the real world so something as

impossible without the net.

Connect to your Windows machine using the Files app on iOS.

That would be OK if it worked. The transfer is one-way, iOS to
Windows, unless there is a setting I'm missing. The iPhone drive
appears to be read-only to Windows File Manager.

 
The transfer is both ways.
 
In the Files app, you connect to the Windows shared drive/folder.
Again, in the Files app, you then copy to/from Windows. The controls
are on the Windows side. The share needs read and write permissions
to copy TO Windows. Copying FROM Windows to iOS needs only read
permission on the Windows share.
 
Since it works, it is indeed OK.

The fact that these trolls *don't* know such a basic fact it says
everything you need to know about their ignorance about all things
Apple.
