hi im using method for copy or move file on sharepoint. but i want to ask how to implement when it's duplicated it automatically replace and update version?

i've been try with this function but it's always

Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerException: 'The destination file already exists

public void CopyFile(string SrcUrl, string DestUrl)
    {
        MoveCopyOptions option = new MoveCopyOptions();
        option.KeepBoth = false;
        MoveCopyUtil.CopyFile(this.clientContext,SrcUrl,DestUrl,true,option);
        this.clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    }

And my src

and my Destination file

You can create a object of MoveCopyOptions that has boolean property KeepBoth. To handle similar file names you can set MoveCopyOptions. If you want to preserve both file after copying/moving set MoveCopyOptions.KeepBoth to true, else make it false.
