SUMMARY
I was trying to copy files/directories to a USB stick(FAT formatted). This failed with generic error message.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a folder with a name that has a space character at the end.
2. Try to move it to a USB stick
3. Error.

OBSERVED RESULT
Generic error message.

EXPECTED RESULT
- More informative errror message ("can't have [these characters] at the end of the file name")
- Suggestion to correct the file name automatically.
