I cannot copy folders between windows 10 and Ubuntu

cn flag

I hope someone can help a newbie.

I have 2 computers I am working for this question. 1 windows 10 computer being used as a file server (4 drives) 1 Ubuntu computer being used as a backup server (4 Drives) I managed to get my home windows 10 and Ubuntu to see each other and the drive.

I can see my 4 Ubuntu drives from the windows 10 computer. I can copy files over. I can make directories. I cannot make sub folders or add files to those sub folders I also cannot drag and drop folders from windows to Ubunto directory with file explorer. Or copy paste I get and error (Pop up: Destination folder Access denied) (you need permission to perform this action)

My smb.conf looks like this.

[global]

workgroup = Workgroup server string = Samba Server %v netbios name = ubuntu security = user map to guest = bad user name resolve order = bcast host dns proxy = no

[Public] comment = Ubuntu File Share path = /srv/samba/share browsable = yes writable = yes guest ok = yes read only = no create mode = 0777 directory mode 0777 force user = nobody

[drive2] path = /mnt/drive2 browsable = yes writable = yes guest ok = yes read only = no create mode = 0777 directory mode 0777 force user = nobody

maybe you need to open your file manager in "Run as administrator"

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
