I'm glad you got that sorted out.
As for copying files, please open another thread, if needed, and mark this as solved.
I would like to get some clarity to this file copy matter myself ... it's really confusing in my environment ... it used to work like a charm in previous versions, but now it either doesn't work and it gives modal error messages that you need to quit before the computer is released. I have disabled everything from VMware and started to use a NAS-drive in host network for copying, but STILL VMware keeps on interfering with the copy/move ... I don't get millions of modal error messages, but still some. My Host is Kubuntu 20.04.2, but this might not make a difference compared to Ubuntu LTS (but it perhaps could because file browser is different).
