Full 'Desination File Already Exists' option matrix

Can we have every option for when files exist… not just the obvious, common ones… But all of them, such that the edge-cases are satisfied.

Over the many years, i’ve needed these option many times… The most recent, i wanted to replace all larger files.

So:

‘Overwrite all older files’, AND ‘Overwrite all newer files’, AND ‘Overwrite all same age files’, AND ‘Overwrite all different age files’.

‘Replace all smaller files’, ‘Replace all files if size different’, AND ‘Replace all larger files’, AND ‘Replace all same size files’

Then the same for Renaming AND Skipping…

The dialog already has the handy option to expand to show the ‘More options, applicable to all files’, with the 6 options, so now it could instead all 12 options. 3 columns of 4, namely: Overwrite, Rename, Skip.

This would then satisfy every single user’s situation, no matter how rare, edge-case it might be!

And TeraCopy’s userbase is almost certainly full of people that need these oddball requirements! ;-)
