With Copywhiz, you can pre-configure the action that must be taken if it encounters files with the same name when copying files. This is especially helpful when taking automated backups. You don't have to give special attention to answering the 'File Replace' message boxes that may appear while the files are being copied.

One such action is the ability to auto-rename duplicate files so that both versions (source and destination) of the files are kept instead of replacing the destination file with the source file.

Here are the steps to follow:

If you have selected files in Copywhiz using the File Explorer (Windows Explorer), then go to the destination folder. Right-click inside the folder, choose Copywhiz → Paste Advanced to open the Copywhiz window and click on the 'Advanced Settings' button as shown in the picture below.

If you have Copywhiz's main window already open, then you can directly click on the 'Advanced Settings' button as shown in the picture below.

Step 2: Select General Tab

Now select the 'General' tab. The following window will appear.

Step 3: Select rename options

Now, click on the drop-down, as shown in the picture, and click on either 'Rename source file' or 'Rename destination file.' Plus, you can provide a file name suffix to easily identify the exact files renamed during a file copy batch.

Step 4: Finally, Paste

Press the OK button and click on the 'Paste Now' button to copy the files with auto-renaming of duplicate files enabled. A sound plays indicating the successful completion of a file copy task.
