The configurable "Confirm File Replace" dialog box

I personally would like to make some improvements like this:

  • Colored and configurable default buttons. I think the replacement action is more dangerous than the delete action, because the delete can still be retrieved from the recycle bin, but the replacement is gone. let user can configure default button is skip,and colored the replace button is red.
  • Configurable default button rule. for example, if the date and size are the same, the default button is replace, and if any one is different, the default is rename(or other)
  • Move the "context replace menu" to the dialog panel. I didn't discover this feature until I searched for this post. show on panel is more intuitive.
  • Users can click a button to display hash when they want. Sometimes it is necessary to know for sure whether two files are exactly the same. Size and date are not reliable. I know this can of course be done with the replace menu. But it would be better if you could display the hash on the panel.
  • Or, Is it possible to add a script event so that the user can hook this event? I don't know if that's possible right now.

This is my dream option. I like... almost never replace files because they are all different except for the names for me.
