I prepend date data to filenames when importing from to my HD's lightroom catalog from a staging directory where some processing has already occurred. For example, _A1_0708.ARW becomes 20220619-_A1_0708.ARW when imported.
Normally I move them on import but I have a bunch of files in a large directory that have been copied.
The originals are now duplicates but I can't figure out how to configure to match them so I can clean up the staging folder and finish processing the other files that haven't been imported. Basically I just need to match on the 4 digit numeric string at the end of the file name.

Do a scan, Regular Mode, Same Content.
After then scan, you can set your lightroom directory to a "Keep safe" mode.
Then select the duplicated files from your staging directory.
