Windows 10: force autoreplace when copying or moving

Aside from Xcopy, Robocopy, batch files, or the like, is there any way to have Windows quietly replace existing files when copying or moving?

No! No answer here!

I have come to know that Microsoft software never has bugs - just creative features that they will claim are, "innovations our customers ask for." I would love to meet some of these users - I truly don't know any of them!

All that aside, I have often used hot keys to do moves or copies. At-least then I know where I am putting them.

I don't post microsoft sites - the kinds of trivial questions that are asked and actually answered there are not the kinds of things I am seeking answers too. I google - yes, google - not some M$ search, whatever they happen to be calling it today - and
if an answer is not found in that way, it is unlikely to exist.

Take care,

I also have the same problem.

 

It won't 'quietly replace' as the OP wants. Duplicate names will trigger a request for you to choose what action to take. I think Hairy Scot want's to bypass this prompt, but I don't know if there's any way to do that.

 

You've hit the nail on the head Bree.
I have searched and searched but to no avail.
I was hoping someone on the forum would have an idea.
But perhaps even Brink is stumped.
