Files in Folders Won't Transfer from Hard Drive to Hard Drive (Error Code -50) I have two hard drives that I connected to a refurbished 2020 MacBook Pro and when I transfer files that are in a folder, it doesn't go through saying "Error Code -50." It isn't the files themselves because I can move the induvidual files in the folder onto the drive, but I cannot transfer or make folders in the drive without getting this message. What is this error code and what can be done to fix it, if anything? Both drives are Ex-FAT formatted and the MacBook Pro is updated to the latest OS.

Transfering data to Mac: error code -43 I am trying to transfer data from my old PC to my new Mac. I tried to use Migration Assistant but it keeps failing. I transferred some documents to an external disk, then used an adapter from USB-A to USB-C. When I try to drag and drop the folders I want into my desktop, it says "Error code -43". I have used First Aid on my disk and it didn't help. Any suggestion as to why this might be happening and how to fix it?
