Getting error: "The system cannot find the file specified. (2)" when copy/pasting a file

I am just right clicking a file in one folder, selecting "Copy", then going to another folder in the same lister/tab, and right clicking and doing "Paste" and I get this error. Or if I right click and drag for "Copy here" I get this error.

I have tried restarting and rebooting.

Works fine in Windows Explorer.

Version 13.18.0.0 (be nice if that were somewhere easier to find - nvm I had hidden the Operations bar and it's there))

Do you get a similar error if you select the same .csv file and then open the Edit menu and use one of the Calculate Checksums options? (If that also fails, something is probably blocking Opus from accessing the file.)

Can other files be copy & pasted? Or the same file to other destinations?

No, the values appear in the column over on the right.

Nothing can be copy/pasted without the error. I only installed it yesterday, and can't remember if I had tried that.

Going to do a chkdsk + reboot and try again

edit: no, still getting error

When I copy that file (from C drive) to another drive, Opus asks to upgrade UAC and then it worked onto that drive. However, copy/pasting within the original drive still gives the error.

Found the issue. I have Controlled Folder access enabled in Windows and dopus.exe had to be added as an exception app.

I wasn't getting any Windows notification popups about it, which is odd, normally do.
