Bridge is creating multiple copies of photos when I download from my camera. I'm using a Z7 and running on Windows 10 - Bridge is up to date. This just started a few days ago. When I use the Photo Downloader it creates two copies of each photo from my camera - I then have to delete every other one before I start actually downloading. Anyone have any ideas??

I have a similar issue with CR3 files - it duplicates every one. I does not do it with my Sony RAW files however.

Similar problem here. In addition to the folder I normally download my photos into, Photo Downloader creates a folder "100MEDIA" and puts a copy of every downloaded image in there. Also creates yet another folder "DCIM" and in that folder Photo Downloader creates another folder, "100MEDIA", and puts still another copy of every downloaded original image in there. I end up with three copies of every photo:

I'm getting the same issue too. But mine reveals itself as the following: main downloaded folder had 2 more folders: 100EOS5D and a DCIM. Yet the DCIM folder contains the 100EOS5D which contains another copy of the images. In total I too get 3x each image and have to delete the extras.
