Hi,

i want to remove or disable the "Replace" button on the name conflict pop-up. any ideas of where to start? 

To recreate the scenario. In any assets folder, try to upload an asset which is already existing in the folder. in which case AEM will show you a pop-up which looks like this.

Warning: I am not very good at this - somebody who understands this topic needs to elaborate / correct me before you put to much hope or effort into this answer.
It seems to me that there is a node in CRXDE 
/libs/dam/gui/content/bulkimport/wizard/jcr:content/body/items/form/items/wizard/items/import_config/items/fixedcolumns/items/fieldset/items/import_mode/items/replace
I would start there to look for the _coral-Dialog-footer in order to disable this
<button is="coral-button" variant="secondary" class="_coral-Button _coral-Button--secondary" size="M"><coral-button-label class="_coral-Button-label">Replace</coral-button-label></button>
Second warning:
You will have to make an overlay node in apps - since you should not change anything in libs.
Last warning: 
This might be not the right way to do it  - and i am very interested how you archieved this - if you are able to do it. 
Keep me updated.

      I just checked in my local enviroment. It is there.
      Please try to search within CRXDE for "REPLACE".
      But - i say it again - this is my uneducated first guess.

        The "Replace" and "Create Version" can be disabled by customizating canOverwrite() function in 

        /libs/dam/gui/coral/components/commons/fileupload/clientlibs/fileupload/js/fileupload.js

        We just need to overlay the js file and update the function

         

        Caution:

        Do not disable for all users, as it would take the functionality away from admin as well.
