iPhone: No new pictures or videos were found on this device

(Windows) Sometimes photos get "stuck" on the iPhone, and the usual method of right-clicking on the iPhone in My Computer and importing doesn't work. It errors: "No new pictures or videos were found on this device".

The fix is to rename the file C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Photo Acquisition\PreviouslyAcquired.db

NOTE: AppData will probably be hidden - you must make hidden files and folders visible in Windows Explorer options.
