I don’t think the transfer issue is permission related. I have a 2tb Drive partitioned as 1tb exfat and 1tb as ext4. Windows can transfer to and from exfat no issue. Any district (except pop) seems to transfer without issue on either partition. But pop installed on my desktop and 2 laptops, it transfers a file less than 1.4gb without issue. Anything larger and it transfers for about 1 hour then faults. I end up with corrupt file on the other side. This sort of issue should not even exist out of the box. Basic functionality should just work.

I end up with corrupt file on the other side. Ah, yes. I was thinking about /mnt/$USER/directory not having sufficient rights (it happens). Slower transfer speed and failures are something else. > This sort of issue should not even exist out of the box. Basic functionality should just work. Might also be a unique combination between HW and software.

  > Might also be a unique combination between HW and software. I thought so, I tried with 2 different external harddrives, but then I noticed transferring on my desktop between 2 internal drives had the same issue. Copying to the same drive / different partition appeared to be OK. I posted on pop_os on reddit and they were gonna help me but I ended up down a rabbit hole which resulted in me on Kubuntu without any issues other than a couple of UI issues which I can live with, and eventually fix.
