iCloud helper and external drives. I’m getting the following when trying to drag and drop from iPad to external hard drive. How do I fix this?

Your screenshot suggests that you are using some kind of Toshiba storage with your iPad - presumably connected via USB.
If you have installed a third-party App to facilitate access to this storage (this being the "helper" application), this may either be incompatible with the currently installed version of iPadOS - or may need to be deleted and re-installed from the Apple App Store.
After deletion - and prior to re-installing the helper App - you should force restart your iPad:
Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)
If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:
Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)
Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
