When XYplorer copy handler is set to TeraCopy, it uses a tmp file that's passed as an argument to TeraCopy. TeraCopy *does* support long file paths, but when the paths are passed through a file list as XY does, long paths need to be prefixed with "\\?\". XY does not add the prefix, and therefore TeraCopy will fail to locate those files.
NOTE1: Long paths passed as command line arguments to TeraCopy do *not* need \\?\ prefixes, only long paths that are passed through file lists.
NOTE: This may no longer be the case with the latest versions of TeraCopy (untested), but the newest versions have never reached feature-parity with some older versions, so they are still preferable.
TeraCopy support for long paths.

2) Your Windows Version (e.g., Win 11)
3) Your Screen Scaling Percentage (e.g., 125%).
We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.
