TC9.5: Start moving with "ignore errors" set

If I move directories with lot of files runnig for several minutes or even hours there's often the problem that after starting an error occurs:
Overwrite file? Can't read file, .... and the process stops.
It would be a great improvement if I could start copying or moving files with a flag "ignore errors" (or more options) and there is no stopping!
For all copying methods: F5, background and F2.

In background all operations which require confirmation should be moved to the end of the list. If you want to ignore all errors, you should use "Skip all" button for any confirmation dialog you will see. So which is your problem, what element doesn't work as expected?
If you want to copy files with errors, there are old 32-bit plugins available:

In the Copy dialog that's shown after pressing F5 you can already change some options regarding the behavior when some file are present in the target directory, when files are not readable and/or locked and so on.
Note that the behavior mentioned by Usher's first sentence is not present in TC 9.x, not in older TC versions.
