There may be a notification asking you to Allow access to data.

This will let your PC or Laptop access your Quest 2's files.

Select Allow

Tip

If your Quest 2 is in Developer mode, you will not be able to access your Quest 2 internal storage this way. In Developer mode you can only access the internal storage over ADB. You will need to use Side Quest to transfer the files.

You must disable Developer mode, reboot your Quest 2 and plug in your cable again and it should prompt you to Allow access to data.
