welcome the forum,

not able to view those logs.
"Forbidden (#403) Error, this is a private paste or is pending moderation. If this paste belongs to you, please login to Pastebin to view it."

Before you try any copy/move/sync make sure that both of your remotes work.

Mega remote works - you can tick it off.

clearly says that your Proton Drive remote is not configured correctly yet.

Start again - read docs - make sure that you can run rclone lsd "proton drive:" -vv without any errors.

I apologize, it should be viewable now. my first time using pastebin

here is my working config, which uses 2FA

Thanks for the reply. Im aware its not configured correctly. The --dry-run log said

Transferred:   	   11.117 GiB / 11.117 GiB, 100%, 0 B/s, ETA -
Checks:              1632 / 1632, 100%
Deleted:                0 (files), 19 (dirs)

which confuses me some. specifically "Transferred"
it worked or did not?
And respectfully, i have read
https://rclone.org/protondrive/
countless times... im just not getting it.

And im kinda confused on

NOTE: The Proton Drive encryption keys need to have been already generated after a regular login via the browser, otherwise attempting to use the credentials in rclone will fail.

and i searched the forums and read everything i can find

here is mine

the command worked, but did not copy, as you used --dry-run.
the output will show you what rclone would do when you remove --dry-run
NOTICE: file.ext: Skipped copy as --dry-run is set

And im kinda confused on

  1. must login to proton drive using a web browser, then proton will create the keys.
  2. run rclone config
