Good morning,
I would like some help setting up a conditional formatting setting.
The end goal is;
Most recent file to be copied and renamed (to a certain name ie: file.xlsx to a new location. If a file with the same name, overwrite the original file.
I have played around with settings, but cant seem to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
New to FFS, Need help with something.

FreeFileSync (FFS) can copy a file to a specified location if no file with the same name exists in that specified location, or overwrite a pre-existing file with the same name if the to-be-copied file is more recent than the pre-existing file.
FFS can/does not rename files (while copying).
However, in distinct cases FFS is able to detect if a file is renamed (e.g. in its left-location) and then
apply the renaming of that file to the sync location (as per the example: the right location).
This, as opposed to a (left-to-right copy) of the file with the new filename and a (right side) deletion of the file under its old filename.
