"Access Denied" Message when trying to copy file(s) pulled with JGit

I have some java code that goes ahead and pulls code from a git repository that I have access to. The files are properly pulled locally.

When I try to copy the files with the Files.copy() method in java.io.file from one local destination to another, I get the following error thrown:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Some\Path\dir (Access is denied)

I have already added the following code in attempt to change the file permissions:

fileInitialLocation.setReadable(true, false);
fileInitialLocation.setExecutable(true, false);
fileInitialLocation.setWritable(true, false);

fileFinalLocation.setReadable(true, false);
fileFinalLocation.setExecutable(true, false);
fileFinalLocation.setWritable(true, false);

What can I change to properly copy the files from the initial location to the final location to prevent the access denied error?

You need to provide the file name when copying.

File fileForCopy = new File("C:\Some\Path\dir\fileName.txt");

If you need to copy whole folder try Apache Commons IO FileUtils.
