You should be able to remove the Select ALL by doing Copy \* TO ... instead of Copy TO ...

For the WHENEXISTS problem, I think it would make sense to delete any existing collection before creating the new one. The [Scrap Collection Toolbar](https://resource.dopus.com/t/scrap-collection-toolbar/6615/1) has an example, on the "Clear Scrap[/b] button, but I think you just need to add this (with the dopusrt stuff) between the two CreateFolder commands:

`Delete QUIET FILE="coll://FlatView-Cache/%str%"`
