How do I transfer iPhone photos as JPG instead of HEIC on a new Windows 11 laptop?

Please help me with this, if anyone can. I got a brand new laptop in January. An Asus Vivobook. And ever since I have been having this annoying issue when trying to transfer my iPhone photos to my laptop via the folder. I have always had my photos as JPG. But with this new laptop, they show up as HEIC. And I do NOT want them to. I want and need my JPG files back. And I cannot figure it out at all. The issue is NOT with my iPhone. I connected it with my old laptop, and it works just fine with JPG photos, not HEIC. But this new laptop is killing me. I have tried everything. Searched everything. I cannot figure it out. Please help. Twice, it suddenly turned into JPG files and I got the photos added to my laptop. I thought it was because I took out the power cord. But no. I'm now trying without the power at all, and it is still just HEIC files. This is driving me insane. Again: it is NOT the settings on my iPhone. It works as it should on my old laptop. The issue is this new devil.

Just. Please help me. I want to add all my photos from my iPhone to my laptop like I have always done, since 2009. This new laptop is killing me. I just want my JPG files. And yes, settings are correct on my iPhone 15 Pro Max. Set to "Automatic." I have tried every setting possible. I keep turning it off and on from my laptop. Nothing works. Not with power, not without. I just want my photos as JPG files, please. Gods, this is annoying. I have spent hours trying to figure it out. But no answer anywhere.
