Syncing Photos from Windows PC on to IPad no longer working properly

I have recently installed Windows 11 and found that iTunes no longer works to sync music, photos, videos etc. You now have to use Apple Music and Apple Devices. When I try to sync photo folders from my PC to my iPad, not all the files are being copied and they are no longer in the order (date) that I originally set up. I never had this problem with iTunes. Any ideas how to resolve?

iPad, iPadOS 18

Uninstall Apple Music, TV and Devices, and iTunes will work normally again. You don't have to use the new suite of apps, but if you install them iTunes is limited to managing audiobooks and podcasts, and all device management features, including syncing photos, are suppressed.
