Hi Adi4,
The behaviour, you described, is something normal (strange would be different one). When you copy something (either file or folder) the destination should not exist! It will be created on copying. When destination exists (folder in particular case), the error you're receiving is something normal. If you want to copy the contained file, better point it both in source and destination path. 😉 If, by any chance, multiple files have to be copied, use batch version of 'copy'.
Hope this helps.
Thank You !!
