Thanks again for your good intentions and dedication to help me solve this situation.ĭue to the large quantity of folders in both locations (A and B) I am unable to remember (keep track of) which folders of B might have the same name of the newly created folders in A.Īctually what happens is that I get the "same-name-conflicts" when I am at the stage of pasting the folders from A into B and that's when I would really like to see a prompt saying something like: What I do NOT want is to end up finding in B 1 Folder John and 1 Folder Mary containing the all the files of bothįOLDERS of location A and location B renamed like File John, File John_1, File Mary, File Mary_1 etc. When I copy the FOLDERS from location A to location B it would be nice to have the conflict of theįOLDERS with the same name resolved in this way :įolder John, Folder John_1, Folder Mary, Folder Mary_1 etc. all the files contained in all FOLDERS in location A and location B have the same extensions and some of them have the same name BUT different content some files contained in the FOLDERS of B may have the same name as some of the files contained in the ![]() some FOLDERS of B may have different contents as some of the some FOLDERS of B may have the same name as some of the I need to copy FOLDERS from location A to location B where: In an effort to clarify I will adapt your nice A and B example to my situation. Rename folders (not files) which are being pasted in a location containing folders with the same name but with different contents. I actually specifically wrote: " WHAT I WOULD LIKE is to sequentially Probably my long post must have been confusing you but I am not interested in filenames modifications at all. Thanks in advance for your creative feedback, I hope the description is clear enough, if not please let me know. I would prefer to have the option to rename the sub/folders (or get the "Copy of FOLDER NAME") and then decide which folder to delete and which one to keep. In other words the sub/folders get merged with each other. In fact in the situation described above (after the copy operation) it would be more logical and convenient (in the "rename" scenario) to find at the destination location (beside the others) the subfolders "Test 3" (containing 2 files named "This" and "That")Īnd "Test 3_1" (containing 3 files named "This", "Tom" and "Jerry").Ĭurrently (after the copy operation) beside the others, I find a single "Test 3" subfolder (containing 4 files named "This", "This_1", "Tom" and "Jerry"). The copy option in a way to get a warning about the existence of a folder with the same name rather than a file with the same name. Sometimes while copying/pasting large amounts of folders (with subfolders inside) is not always possible to know which one (target/source) of the files contained in the folders/subfolders is the one to keep, so it would be actually nice if the user could configure Why don't I get the warning that the folder "Test 3" already exists and get the overwrite, rename and skip options for the folder? If I copy the 3 subfolders from "THERE" and paste them into "HERE" I get the warning that the file "This" already exists and I have the usual overwrite, rename and skip options. NOTE: All files in all sub/folders have the same extension. ![]() I have a folder named "THERE" containing 3 subfolders named "Test A", "Test B" and "Test 3" each subfolder contains 3 files named "This", "Tom" and "Jerry". I have a folder named "HERE" containing 3 subfolders named "Test 1", "Test 2" and "Test 3" each subfolder contains 2 files named "This" and "That". If I copy a folder called "TEST" and paste it in the same location where I copied it from I get a folder called "Copy of TEST" but if I paste it in a different location the system handles the paste operation in quite a different way.Ĭoncrete situation (which describes what I mean with "undesirable folder merging"): ![]()
