Default Re: Workstation name collision

you will likely want to keep the one with the Highest number.
When a PC imports and there is already a WS Object with that name, it will
append a sequential number.
I would look at the "Last Registered Time". This should indicate the old
object.

Also, you likely have 'Automatic Workstation Cleanup" running so it would
clean up old objects after a month or so depending on the settings.
