Symbol next to file name after transferring them onto hard drive

So I just finished transferring some files onto my hard drive and there are some weird symbols next to my file names that looks like a pie chart. Don't know what it means and can't really find an answer online. Thought I'd ask it here.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), macOS High Sierra (10.13.2)

Hello JosephW66,

That means the file is in the process of being transferrred. Normally you only see that with downloads. Have your copy operations completed? If these icons persist, maybe try a restart.
