Hi Paul,
Thanks for your help as seamless file transfer over WiFi and USB without
the restrictive iTunes abomination is something anyone with an iOS device
and Windows would want to do.

Based on your excellent advice and patient explanations, I've put trying to
get the three iOS mount points to work on Windows on the back burner.

Instead, I'm first going to document for the tribal-knowledge archives what
works best on Windows, where we already have both iOS HTTP & iOS FTP
servers working fine - so I'll document below how I enabled the freeware
iOS SMB server to play nice with Windows over WiFi.

1. On iOS, I started the freeware app "WiFi HD" and selected the
"Documents" tab in that freeware and turned it on, which gave
me a server address of smb://192.168.1.9 for that iOS device.

2. On Windows 10 Pro, I added the following "network location":
Network Location = \\192.168.1.9\Documents
Windows-generated Name = Documents (192.168.1.9 (NQ CIFS Server))

2. On Windows 10 Pro, that iOS smb://192.168.1.9/Documents share
opened up automatically

where I right clicked and created an empty text file on that
iOS SMB share where the file was named "jollyroger.txt".

And then I doubleclicked on that iOS file from Windows to add content:

3. Immediately, that file showed up in iOS when I refreshed WiFi HD:

4. That's a clear test of seamlessness, but, as an optional additional
step, I decided to add to that text file from the Windows cmd line,
but Windows doesn't recognize SMB addresses at the command line.
c:\ cd \\192.168.1.9\Documents
'\\192.168.1.9\Documents'
CMD does not support UNC paths as current directories.

5. So I "mounted" the smb share as a removable drive on Windows:
c:\ net use S: \\192.168.1.9\Documents
The command completed successfully.

6. I then appended to that text file from the Windows 10 command line:
c:\ dir S:\jollyroger.txt

7. To prove all this action on Winodws was being done on the iOS device,
I opened the file in WiFi HD on the iOS device, which reveals both
actions worked seamlessly to edit iOS file from Windows.

8. This file never left the iOS device, where the iOS device was being
edited from Windows the entire time and where the file can now be
moved on the iOS device to wherever we want to put it.

In summary, this proves seamless integration of iOS with Windows over the
SMB protocol where it was easy to edit a file on the iOS device from the
Windows desktop over Wi-Fi.

Notice the file never left the iOS device.
The iOS file was created and modified from the Windows desktop over WiFi.
