Copied file name format

Post by *quantum »

Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V on a file gives me names like xx - Copy (2). Can I format that so new dupes come out xx-01 xx-02 etc.

Since TC doesn't actually copy the file but the shell (Explorer) does, you should ask your search engine if it's possible to change this string in Explorer.

Google sent me to this page:

This is for Windows 10, it may be different for older Windows versions.
