Thanks @marcelparciak - solves the problem! However, I really think Zotero should provide a more elegant fix for this. A "Merge all with default selection" button would be very useful
@marcelparciak: Many thanks for this script. But need some further help. How do I change the time settings? I am working on a huge library, so one merge operation is taking up to 15 seconds. How do I prevent the script from clicking too soon? which parameter do I change in your script
@marcelparciak Thank you for this simple little hack. Saved me a lot of time. For those new to it, some manual input is still needed, as it will stop whenever it encounters different reference types. Just select the next item and rerun it. No complaints about this, since this is minimal compared to the amount of work I would have invested otherwise.
I found this add-ons tool that worked smoothly for me. Sometimes looks like it is freezing but after re-clicking on some item of the duplicate folder automatically (in some time) merges all duplicates one after another.

I have developed an add-on to detect duplicates when **importing** new items.
It supports Zotero 6 and 7. A dialog will pop up if the newly imported item already exists in the library.
Please find it here: https://github.com/ChenglongMa/zoplicate
Also, any feedback and new feature suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.

I appreciate your kind words, and I am truly flattered :)
