Copy/Paste on Desktop without asking for Confirmation?
Hello All,
If I'm viewing any folder with Thunar and copy/paste any file in that same folder, it auto creates the copy and names it "filename (copy 1).extension".
But if I do this on the Desktop I always get the "Confirm to replace files" message box and have to select an option.
On older versions of Xfce this wasn't the case and it would auto create the copy without asking, which I'd prefer.
Is there a way to reinstate this behaviour so that if I copy/paste something on the Desktop it just creates the copy without asking each time?
If I right click and "Open in new window" on the Desktop, then minimise that window, then on the Desktop copy/paste something it works as desired and auto creates the copy without asking.
But if I close the Desktop window that's minimised it stops working and the "Confirm to replace files" message appears again.
Thanks
