Start by reproducing the reported copy operation between Windows 11 and a MacBook with a .txt file, using the issue screenshot and error text as the expected symptom. Inspect the copy path and error handling after confirming whether the file was transferred. Done means the file copies without showing an erroneous “invalid argument” error.
