[Completed] Cannot unmount OTG drive

Dear All!
I expect some problem with the device stated in my signature.
Sometimes (not always) when I insert OTG flash drive with FAT32 some strange zero-sized file creates in root directory of the drive. The file has name like "2691bc3e-163e-4828-83e4-b7815e344d0a" (the name changes from time to time).
If I want to unmount the drive normally - I have to delete this file before unmounting.
If I try to unmount without deleting - it will not be successful. Moreover if I try to delete the file after pressing unmount - the file cannot be deleted and the file manager freezes (tested on Root Explorer, Solid Explorer> Total Commander etc). After that I still cannot unmount the drive.
My questions are:
1. What can cause such file creation?
2. Is there any application that can show information about what active app is working with this file? I know about StickMount Pro, but it simply kills the app without giving any information about it.
Thanks in advance.

[Completed] [Q] Access a file on mobile through laptop(PS: not copy cut paste but actual access)

To be precise, my purpose is: I want to use an MS Access database, stored in my mobile memory through a software on my laptop, both being in the same WiFi network.
I have used various file manager apps, but everywhere I am able to just copy, paste or move the file through laptop on mobile and vice versa.
To give an example: Through ES File Explorer, I opened an excel file in my mobile through my laptop and worked on it. But when I wanted to save, then instead of saving on the same excel file, it created a new copy. But my purpose was that it should have saved on the same excel file, like it happens to any other file if saved on laptop memory.
I hope I've been able to explain myself.
I'll be really glad if someone could provide me a solution to this.
PS: I have rooted my phone, so problem of not having root access won't be there.

[Completed] "Camera" folder not found in under "DCIM"

I was trying to backup my pictures that I took with phone camera (stock camera app).
I have done this multiple times before without a problem.
However, when I tried doing it again recently (perhaps its my first time after updating to Marshmellow), I am unable to find "Camera" folder under "DCIM" folder.
I still have all the photos in my phone (they are not deleted), I just simply cannot locate them through USB when I connect it to my PC.
What's funny is, there are a handful of photos that I moved from "Camera" folder to separate folders USING MY PHONE and I am able to locate those photos saved in separate folders through USB. I just cannot locate "Camera" folder.
I have tried transferring the photos using: MTP, PTP and also the option of USB ethernet (computer didn't recognize my phone when I tried this option)
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance
