When I specify a long copy operation, IE backing up a bunch of large files, it doesn't ask me about collisions / overwrites until each file has come up in the queue, IOW after preceding files have been processed. This is tedious for long copies with multiple choices, yet AFAIK there's no reason the copy queue couldn't be checked up front upon initiation, instead of during the actual copy process. IOW, it checks all files in advance before starting any copies, asks for ALL user input / choices of what to do up front, all immediately, then goes about its business unattended, even when the last file of a 30-minute copy is the only one with a collision. Make sense? Ask me now, not in 29 minutes!
I was unable to find anything suggesting an existing setting, solution to, or request for this, forgive me if it already exists!

Re: Pre-qualify collisions and choices
Not possible. Windows being multi-tasking OS anything could happen after the pre-check.
