Copying files to and from a Mint computer randomly displays error message from Windows
by RobertX from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5K2ZN)
When I use a Windows 7 computer to copy files to and from a Linux Mint server that is configured through Samba, an error message appears in the middle of the operation of files. It looks like this:

Sometimes it's there, sometimes the files copy perfectly without that message. Prediction of whenever it comes is guesswork.
I have tried the following, but is met with little success:
1. Do a clean reinstall of Windows 7 on the Windows 7 computer that is doing the copying.
2. Mapping the Linux share that is being copied to/from.
Surprisingly, I had experienced nothing of the kind when I use Linux Mint 20.1 to copying to/from the the Windows machine, that is, when I using the computer that has Mint on.
Are there other things I should try? Let me know.
Thanks!
EDIT: Oh, I am using MATE.
Here's what I added to the smb.conf file:
Code:name resolve order = bcast lmhosts wins
server min protocol = NT1
server max protocol = SMB2
