Just a heads up, you might need sudo for that.

Agree, but be careful with `-exec cp`—it can overwrite files.

I recall that using `-user` with `find` is the right approach, but I wonder if I should specify the full path for `cp` to avoid any issues.

I feel confident about using `mkdir` to create the directory, but I’m not sure if I need to include `-rfp` in the `cp` command.

I practiced a similar question where we had to find files by size. I think the `-exec` option is correct, but I might have mixed up the flags for `cp`.

I think I remember that the `find` command is used to search for files, but I'm not entirely sure about the syntax for copying them.

Looks good, but I'm a little worried about the potential for copying sensitive files. Maybe we should add a check to skip any files in /etc or /var.

This is a great solution, but I wonder if there's a way to do it without using the root directory. Maybe we could start the search from /home/harry instead?

You can try running the command without the flags and see if it works, but it's recommended to include them for proper file copying.
