Hello, sorry to write a ticket about a program that hasn't been updated in 8 years but I wanted to let people know about this so that they don't have to figure it out by themselves like me.

Currently, if the following conditions apply, the program skips the file:

  • Automatic choice for duplicates is set as "Overwrite if..."
  • The file is a duplicate that doesn't respect the overwrite condition
  • The action for the file is set to "Move"
    With "Move" selected one would expect that instead of skipping the file it would delete it because it didn't respect the overwrite condition, but no.

It would be nice to have an "Exclusive move" action that either moves the file or deletes it if the move fails. It could also be an option below the automatic duplicate choice were you select the action to take if duplicate files don't respect the given condition, with options like:

  • Skip
  • Delete
  • Use defaut automatic choice
    or simply use the default choice instead of skipping and add the option "Delete" in the available automatic choices.

P.S.: I don't know if 1 is low priority or high priority so I just put 4 because it's in the middle and the middle seems appropriate for this "issue".
