First, please do not copy text as pictures.
Second, you're attempting to copy the file to /triSurface, which is probably not a directory that exists, nor should it exist.
Your users files are typically in /home/username/, often abbreviated ~.
You probably want to copy the file to ~/triSurface/, not /triSurface. If ~/triSurface does not exist, you can create the directory with mkdir ~/triSurface.
In general only root is able to modify files outside of /tmp and your home directory. /tmp is, as name indicates, used only for temporary files, and not intended for persistent storage.
Use :
cp /mnt/c/Users/leewp/Desktop/cylinder3.stl triSurface/Because you are already on the path. And the triSurface already excist. Except if you really want to make /triSurface. Which i would not recommend.
