Saving ‘failed’ output files to a different folder

Hi,

 

I have a workflow that outputs to several files at once.

 

If one of those files is open an error is returned (of course). Can I get Alteryx to still save any failed files down into a different folder or with a different name such as V2?

I can't think of a decent way to accomplish this.  But it's a great idea.  Maybe post it as an idea - the more likes you get the more likely it is to be put into the product.  I can see an output data tool option like "if output file is open, create a duplicate file" or something like that.

Thanks, I'll post the idea
