Default Is there any way to set the default Win10 to copy Android DCIM to Merge & Skip by default?

Unfortunately for me, rebooting didn't change anything.
o When I copy a well-populated DCIM directory from Android to Windows
o It _always_ asks the same question which I simply want to always skip

Can anyone get this registry key to simply automatically check the boxes?

All I want to do is merge the two folders with the newer files from Android
(it's _always_ going to be the _same_ task every single time I do it).

Here's how to test:
1. Snap a photo (so that your DCIM is _newer_ on Android than on Windows)
2. Connect the Android device as an MTP device over USB to Windows.
3. Navigate to the Android SDcard containing the DCIM folder
4. Rightclick copy this newly updated Android DCIM folder
5. Rightclick paste in a Windows directory containing an older DCIM copy

If is just works without asking any questions, then you're set up like
I'm trying to set it up for simplicity & efficiency.
