Copying files works strange

[Marty]

When a file is copied into a folder where a file with the same name alreaedy exist, instead of asking to rewrite, rename or skip, it copies the file with a name "Copy of <file>".

Not sure if this strange behaviour is possible to change in Tools Options but I did not manage to find it.

How do you make the copy?? You should have the 'ask dialog' box

Isn't this the same issue that was reported in the French forum:

• Remplacer pas "une copie de", c'est possible ? (fr»en)

A problem is that I have returned to version 1.82.4, so I cannot claim how it is in the latest version that I tried for some time. What I can now say is this:

Let's suppose I have a file 001.jpg in folder PICTURES and a file 001.jpg in the ROOT folder. When I move it by mouse, the dialog really appears (but I don't use it because it kills the descriptions). I usually take the picture file 001.jpg in the root, press CTRL+X or CTRL+C (depending on what I wish to do) and then go to folder PICTURES and press CTRL+V. In this car I am not asked about rewriting or renaming but a new file Copy of 001.jpg appears there.

If I copy one file, it is not a problem to rename it (if I realize that or notice that) but if I copied several tenths of files and then I had to delete the old ones and manually rename all the new ones, it get to be a real issue.

Please, try the same with the latest version (I think it was the same though I hesitate to confirm it) and if it's OK there, I will try it again and let you know.

Also, I am not sure if there are some settings that could control this behaviour, but I did not find it.

Thank you,

Marty
