Allow overwrite hidden & read only files when using direct copy or direct move

The idea behind Direct Copy or Direct move commands is lets you copy or move files as fast as possible without any question to confirm asked.

However you may want to have some control over this action how to deal with hidden on read only files.

Here is the option for that.

By checking this check mark you allow the software to overwrite these files without your permission. Normally software will not do that as the read only files or hidden files are read only or hidden for reason.

Rename files on collision when copy & paste

When copying files using copy & paste commands available in File Browser very often happen that the file with the same name already exist in the folder where you paste files.

Here you can set whether you want to overwrite existing files or not.

If you uncheck this option then existing files will be overwritten.
