How to connect iPhone's internet to Windows PC via USB cable?:

  1. Install latest iTunes on Windows PC
  2. iPhone Settings -> Mobile -> Personal Hotpsot -> ON
  3. Select "USB Cable" on window that pops up
  4. Connect iPhone to Windows PC

The latest version of iTunes needs to be installed, because that will install the drivers required for Windows to see the iPhone as a modem and use it to bridge a connection to the internet.
