iphone 6 DCIM folder shows empty when connected to my pc even though it contains pics

Recently developed a problem when I connect it to my iphone 6 to download pics to my pc

When I click on the iphone icon the DCIM folder appears, but when I click on it a response appears "this file is empty"

The DCIM folder does contain numerous photo files, and the iphone is unlocked.....Any ideas what may be causing this problem?
