Move/Copy does nothing in Linux [BUG]

Description of the Issue

  • Both Move and Copy operations do not actually move or copy files from source to destination folder upon pressing 'Ok', regardless of file type and additional options. Also, no errors are returned.
  • This bug has been found on Pop OS 20.04 LTS running in a virtual machine using VMWare Workstation Player 16.

Additional details

  • It's possible that the Linux filesystem has some kind of conflict with the program that is not allowing the files to be moved. However, in that case a security error of some kind would be expected from the OS, but no errors are shown.
  • Other than that, the issue may lie with shutil or the way the program processes file paths.
