Any option to change Windows XP default Copy Here naming from "Copy of {name}.{ext}" to "{name}.{ext}.copy"

If I understand right, you want to create duplicates of the files in the same directory. I created a .cmd file to do this via the "Send To" menu. If a name.ext.copy file already exists, it will create:

• name.ext.copy2
• name.ext.copy3
• etc...

To install

1. Go to the Start > Run... menu and type "sendto" or "shell:sendto".
2. In the window that pops up, create a new text file.
3. Open the new file in Notepad.
4. Paste in the text below.
5. Rename the text file to "Copy of.cmd" (with the quotes).

To use

1. Select one or a group of files.
2. Right-click on the file(s).
3. Select the Send To... > Copy of.cmd option.

Copy of.cmd

for %%f in (%*) do call :try_copy %%f
goto :eof

:try_copy
if not exist "%~1.copy%2" goto :copy
call :try_next %1 %2
goto :eof

:copy
copy %1 "%~1.copy%2"
goto :eof

:try_next
if "%2" == "" ( set _next=2 ) else ( set /a _next=%2 + 1 )
call :try_copy %1 %_next%
goto :eof
