Can anyone help at all?

You haven't answered all of my questions so I can only make a guess as to what might be happening. 

Based on the limited information you have given, all I can tell you is that it is necessary to insert the memory card into the (laptop?) card reader and make sure that the card is recognized as a drive in Windows File Explorer.  After that, start the Organizer and begin the Import>From Camera or Card Reader option. 

If that doesn't solve the problem please answer all of my questions.

Hi,

Season's greetings to you. Thank you for offering to assist. To answer your questions:

 

Have you tried a different USB cable and/or USB port?

* Yes

Does it happen with all memory cards?

* Yes

 

What make/model is the device you are shooting photos on, and are you recording any raw or heic files?

* Without the SD card inserted into the computer, the import window appears. I then insert the card and the import window then just vanishes.

Are you using a card reader or connecting directly from camera or phone?

Are you getting any error messages?  Please provide details or a screenshot.
