When I drag and drop a file from a mounted Dropbox folder I get this error message

Copying /root/Desktop/Everything Edible Dropbox/JBF/JBF.gnucash as /root/Downloads/JBF.gnucash
cp: ‘/root/Desktop/Everything Edible Dropbox/JBF/JBF.gnucash’: Input/output error
Failed to copy '/root/Desktop/Everything Edible Dropbox/JBF/JBF.gnucash'

Done
There was one error.

The file does copy and I can open it and everything no problem.

I am sorry but this is not problem with rclone... And this is rclone forum. Not everything what has rclone in its name can be supported here:) It applies to any 3rd party wrappers/extensions/programs utilising rclone.

Please use command line rclone version and come back if you have any issues.

I have stopped using RClone Browser and am now using RClone GUI

rclone rcd --rc-web-gui

the terminal says

2024/08/20 15:49:03 NOTICE: Web GUI exists. Update skipped.
2024/08/20 15:49:03 NOTICE: Serving Web GUI
2024/08/20 15:49:03 NOTICE: Serving remote control on http://localhost:5572/

When I drag a file into a mounted folder I get this error from the ROX file manager
