When you copy and replace a file it's very confusing to see which one is newer, older, bigger, smaller... It would be great to have a window asking to replace giving this lines of text: Copy & Replace : Source - Size : 634 KB (Bigger) - Date : 10-11-2019 20:02:33 (Newer) At the end of the Size line it could say Bigger, Smaller or Identical. At the end of the Date line it could say Newer, Older or Identical. Thanks!

Also, it would be tremendously useful if the file already exists batch functionality could be a little smarter. Right now, there is: Skip Overwrite In some situations though, you want to set conditions though: if smaller/if larger/if newer/if older at the very least.
