"Skip, Try again, Ignore, ignore All" for Dailogue boxes?

I recall seeing a request for something like this only two or three months ago, but I cannot find the post.

Please and Thank you, might we have, for all dialogue boxes that run into a "file exists" or 'file does not exist" type of error, include appropriate buttons to let the user get on with the job and then return to fix anomalies?
After all, we are probably using Everything because we have a problem with our file collections; such problems as "does/doesnot exit" are for us a fact of life.

In the example above I am attempting to rename files "Diary3" which happen to be non-existent in the folder as "Diary" files, after a catastrophic error and recovery to an MSWord document.
I expect to find duplicates, but want to rename the non-duplicates files that I can rename.

Thanks, Chris

I have on my TODO list to add a "Do this for the next x files" checkbox like Windows.
Thank you for the suggestion.

For now, please hold down Shift and click Continue to skip all.

Thanks Void. I wrote a quickie-batch-file to REName, but I note the Shift+ClickContinue method for next time.
Cheers, Chris
