This was one of my pet peeves with the T6s when I had it (and one of the many reasons why I ended up going with the 70D instead).

Canon basically left that entire option off the wifi menus. Notice there are only 5 icons on the menu? The 6th one was the EOS utility option that, among other things, allowed you to download pics to a pc.

A work around is to send all your photos to your Google Drive and if you are running the Google sync utility on your PC, Google Drive will sync the photos to your pc.

The EOS utility simply doesn't work with the T6s/i. Canon should have at least allowed the utility to download pics via wifi and just disabled the remote shooting part. Kind of petty on Canon's part IMO.
