iCloud Photos v12 sees IMG_4805.PNG but not IMG_4805(1).PNG

Hi,

My iCloud Media Type Screenshots has 22,088 items:
Scan finds them all: 2200+ items
Copy to Right: Only 9668 items
Win11 iCloud App Export: IMG_4805* = 4 files
Syncovery Download: IMG_4805* = 1 files

Appears that similar filenames are not recognized
IMG_4805(1).PNG - skipped
IMG_4805(2).PNG - skipped
IMG_4805.HEIC - skipped
IMG_4805.PNG - copied

but the log file only shows one file skipped.

So, I'm unsure what's happening.

Hello,
in the meantime, you can choose Rclone as a protocol and sync with iPhotos via Rclone.
