Dolphin won't copy certain files from USB to SSD

The file names were (1) in Russian cyrillic or in Russian cyrillic + English latin and (2) very long. The system didn’t say what the problem was. Do I need to rename the files?

Do a copy of some of this files and rename them with short names. Test if the copy works.

If it is, yes the length is the cause and you’d have to shorten the file names.

What are the filesystems?

I shortened the names and was able to copy the files.

Minor gripe: I would have expected the option to save under a different name in the warning prompt.
