When uploading or moving files to a folder that share a name, it'd be nice for an option that just renames them all by adding a number or something instead of only asking to replace them.
Hey there @CTYORO, welcome to the community!
Totally understand your viewpoint here with wanting the popup to go away. However, some people find that notification useful because it alerts them where there's a duplicate and gives them an opportunity to *not* copy the file into the new folder to conserve precious space in their account.
Maybe a good compromise would be a section in preferences that gives everyone the chance to turn this pop
This is great feedback though, we'll make sure this is passed along.
Thanks for the response, my suggestion isn't to remove the pop up, but rather give a third option of auto renaming duplicate file names(usually this is done by adding a number to make it different).
As it stands you can only replace or ignore files with duplicate names. Sometimes I upload images that have the same name as ones present, but are different images. I then need to create a new temporary folder and then use my laptop later to move and rename them using its built in function in file explorer.
Hi @CTYORO, we appreciate your feedback about giving the option to automatically rename duplicated files.We take all comments into consideration when improving the Dropbox site and services!
