For BlueStacks App Player for Windows v 0.9.0.4049 and higher
There is a shared folder between BlueStacks and Windows:
BlueStacks: /sdcard/windows/BstSharedFolder (you may need to install a file explorer app such as "ES File Explorer" to access this folder)
Windows: <BLUESTACKS_DATA>/UserData/SharedFolder (by default, <BLUESTACKS_DATA> is C:/...

After a couple of days of digging, I found the solution to this issue.
I opened up Device Manager. My first problem is I was looking for Android Composite ADB Interface, which is what it usually is called. I started looking harder. When I noticed ACER Device. My machine is not an ACER, nor do I have any ACER devices attached, or so I thought. I expanded ...

By looking at the inf file, you can find that it tells to use the WinUSB driver. So there is a better solution than disabling driver signature enforcement, you can use the tool Zadig (http://zadig.akeo.ie/). This tools create a self-signed inf for this specific device, using ephemeral keys, added to the trusted certificate store (for this only device / inf), ...

What fixed it for me was clicking on the "Connected as a media device" up at the top left corner, de-selecting Media Device (MTP) and then checking Camera (PTP). This essentially made it show up as a different kind of USB device with different options and allowed the process to work perfectly.

Try the 15-seconds ADB/drivers all-in-one installer. You could also install the Samsung drivers rather than conventional OnePlus drivers.
I installed these drivers and I've had mine working since the upgrade.
You could also try following this guide on how to set it up.

In theory, there is not a way to access your phone's memory card with a drive letter, because, as you said, Android now connects it as an MTP device, and not as a Mass Storage device. But, there are two solutions:
Root phone and get a "Mass Storage" enabler application that will work on your phone.
Without rooting phone: as long as both the computer are on ...

.exe Files are Windows binaries (i.e. executable files/applications/programms) that can not be run natively on a Android system.
I am sure the Play Store (or the alternatives of the Play Store) will have an equivalent app to the .exe file you are trying to run.

I have exactly the same device as you, down to the Android version and build number. I discovered that it was necessary to change my USB transfer mode.
You can do this on the Nexus 7 by going to Settings > Storage, clicking on the strange menu icon in the top right hand corner and selecting "USB computer connection". I then changed the storage mode to "...

I found the solution myself: Windows 10 somehow does not want to install the driver, as it can not verify the manufacturer. So the driver from Sony Developer's site works just fine.
After deactivating the Windows driver signature check everything works fine.
To deactivate proceed like this: (taken from HERE)
Press Win + X then U then Shift + R

The problem is that you're missing the adb recovery driver. You might consider trying Koush's universal USB driver installer -- it solved this very problem by installing the missing drivers.

Different ways of sharing interet connection from Windows to other devices

I located a solution from this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZNPO1gMcoA and thought I would share here since this was the first result when I began looking for a solution.
The problem is that Windows does not detect the Bluetooth serial links automatically. You can manually point to the standard windows drivers by completing the following ...

I had the same problem with Kindle Fire Utility, and I actually figured this out.
The install_drivers.bat replaces the driver, which is not what you want! You need both drivers in place, the regular Amazon Kindle one, and the ADB driver. To get it to work:
Uninstall the Android ADB driver in Device Manager (right click to do this)
In Device Manager, right ...

Tap "Wireless & networks";
Tap "Wi-Fi settings";
Tap your device "menu" to bring up extra options and select "advanced";
Tap "Use static IP";
Fill in your local network static IP details and dns ...

My method is based on the answer suggesting WebDAV. It could be replicated by an FTP, Samba or other networked file server. Essentially you start a WebDAV server on your android device, and mount it as a network drive. Your phone's IP must be visible to the computer you want to browse the files on. Generally this means you must be on the same local ...

The easiest way to get this driver is from the samsung website. There is a link to a download that installs only the driver (none of the bloat).
See https://stackoverflow.com/a/11851697/1427165 for more details.

If all you care about is the clipboard sharing, you might want to take a look at ClipSync. This app allows you to share your clipboard between multiple Android devices and your Windows PC: Copy on one device, and it appears in the clipboard of all others. At least that's what the app description says (all Windows I have are just for fresh air and light ...

Chor WaiChun mentioned this on a locked question you posted on StackOverflow:
I've seen somewhere stated that this behaviour is because both android
and linux run on same kernel, and same situation goes to developing
android on mac. Both OS runs in very similar OS kernel with Android,
that is why they don't need any drivers. These are just something ...

Unfortunately, it's a big problem. Google apparently decided to go MTP only route since it does not require unmounting the storage from the Android side when you connect it to your computer. So:
You cannot assign a drive letter to an MTP device. Here's my answer on superuser.com explaining why.
There is a program named Alt Mounter that supposely solves this ...

This is really a continuation of @Zuul's answer, to cover the DNS settings in Android 4.0+ (ICS), which is a little harder to find IMO. AFAIK Zuul's answer covers Android <2.3 settings.

Press and hold (long tap) your wireless network until dialog pops up

Actually Windows Experience Feature is the answer!
I had the same problem and could not install usb drivers for a MotoG on a win2012 Server, but when I installed Desktop Experience feature, all runs flawlessly, drivers auto-installed and all!
BUT it is a little weird to find it...
Go to:
Server Manager -> Open Add Roles and Features Wizard -> Features -> ...

You (or someone else) probably accidentally click this banner on the main screen.
And "Accept" the offer.
(Note: this dialog may also pop-up on reboot)

Avast pushed the installation silently (which I still doubt since it didn't happen on my case).
Avast gets the Google accounts saved on the Chrome, and it's possible for them to offer their ...

Okay I finally found something which helped me.
The Media Feature Pack for Windows 10 N & KN (all editions) alias KB-3010081 is for the first version of Windows 10.
But for the Windows 10 with the big update we had a few time ago, there is an update which supersedes the KB-3010081.
This is the KB-3099229 : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/...

Just pulling all files via adb to a WIndows computer has multiple problems:
Android/Linux allows multiple files in one directory that just differ in their case.
The file-system on Linux allow characters in file- and directory names that are disallowed on Windows
Some file-names are completely disallowed on Windows which are just regular file-names on Linux/...
