It's necessary to delete first, then copy to the micropython virtual drive.

To check better than with whatever file manager program you used,
use the same terminal program you are going to use to run pulse()
and see a micropython prompt.

do these unix-like commands:	#this part after the # is a comment

ls /flash	# list

ls -la /flash	# list even starting with .

(should show files, and in the second case files that are the directory . and parent directory ..)

cd  /flash	# change dir to /flash

rm filename1 filename2 filename3    # delete files

then try copying the files.
