Hello Nihil,

First, it looks like you’re posting multiple issues into the same thread. Could you please open separate threads for separate issues? That can help keep the threads organized and faster to find answers for anyone else in the future who may have the same issue.

In regards to the most recent screenshot the error is pretty clear that the File Operation snap requires the file to be moving on the same host with the same protocol. If you need to move a file from file://[LOCATION] to ftp://[LOCATION] then you need to use a File Reader and File Writer to make the transition.

To move a file from one host to another you need to have the Directory Browser snap feed the file to File Reader then a File Writer. File Operation snap is used when you are moving the file around on the same host. Here is a screenshot of the first three snaps you need:
