i dont understand ur problem? You plugged in your camera and them options popped up? Thats a good thing when them options pop up all you have to do is download it to the folder.

ok,plug your camera in, go to “my computer” and right click on your camera under “devices with removable storage”. click properties and on the “Autoplay” Tab make sure your settings look good there, if you can’t get them to work after that, post up what you have those settings at.
