Hello,
My process:
1. Search for all photos in a given folder and subfolders
2. Select all that match specific criteria (irrelevant what criteria for this issue)
3. Press Shift+F2 to open the "Rename" feature
4. Make changes in the "New Format" input field
5. Click OK
It may happen, that the folder in which the selected photos exist already has a photo with the target name. It was not an issue when I chose 10 photos, to begin with. But what if I work with 100k files? It can happen that there are 10k duplicates.
What I would like to suggest is to add an option to append a number at the end of each file being processed.
So if the app encounters error 183, I could just hit the "Skip all errors" or select a checkbox "Append a number at the end of duplicated file".
Right now the only solution to this is to hold ALT+C and hopefully, there aren't that many duplicates. Otherwise, I may end up holding the keys for a long time.
Thank you.
Please add an "append" or skip all errors options to Rename Window (error 183)

To continue to all, please hold down Shift and click continue.
This will skip all errors.
I will consider an option to skip all errors button and a checkbox to add a number to the end of the duplicated filename.
Thank you for the suggestions.
