Replace or skip

#1 Post by musicmouse » 2022-06-16 13:01

One of the most annoying messages is the popup that the file already exists: do you want to overwrite it, overwrite it only when different of skip the file transfer?

This is specially a problem when you are transferring a large number of files. Suddenly after half an hour this message pops up and all transmission stops. It often takes quite some time before you notice it and that means delays for your work.

Two possible solutions:
- just like when you copy files in MS WIndows the file transfer could continue and when everything is finished you get a message that 100 files could not be copied because they are already there.
- there comes an extra button at the bottom bar right that gives you the opportunity to set this at any time for the current transfer.

Is there anything already implemented or planned?

That is default behavior. But I want flexibility.
