I have a process where I collect files from a project folder for processing.
Users save their emails to this project folder from outlook.(Office Outlook365 on win10) In outlook you can grab a set of emails and throw them to a file explorer window to "save as". If any of the files already exist in the folder, windows gives the option to either
- "Copy & Replace"
- "Not Copy".
I want to copy, keep both and rename new with a (1) or (2) extension to the filename. filename.msg filename(1).msg
Anyone have a suggestion on how this can be achieved? and made easy for non-technical users?
I thought there might be a registry setting to allow for default rename of copied files or something.
Other Solutions suggested for this problem suggest saving to a temp folder and then copy from temp folder to project folder and then you get option to overwrite/rename, but it is a longwinded and potentially disastrous method that relies on you clicking multiple checkboxes every time to not overwrite your saved files.
