IS THERE ANY SOFTWARE OR DRIVER to activate the cable and make it readable?? please help i will be thankful to u
There's no such thing as a simple usb2.0 to usb2.0 data cable for the purposes of transferring files. If you are using some kind of straight through USB A plug to USB A plug, this will not work. This cannot work unless one of your devices supports both Host and Device modes (most machines only have Host mode). There are devices that can do what you require and may be a simple looking cable, however they are in fact most likely 2 USB NICs (Network Interface Controllers). If this is the case, they should show up as network adapters in your OS. Finally, they may be some custom devices which would then require custom drivers on both machines.
