Changing Names with File Explorer
I plan on changing file names to my campaigns, mods and extensions within File Explorer to add a uniform prefix to help assist with organization. Is there any downside to this? I suspect it may make tracking new versions of extensions slightly more cumbersome - but I don't think there are are relational links or references to the external file name - is that a fair statement? Anyone have any opinion on whether this is a good or bad idea? I'm leaning toward doing this as managing the volume of files is becoming more difficult with each new system I become interested in....

You can do this, but the main issue will be with extensions and modules provided via the update process. This will look at filenames and so will download the extensions and modules again every time an update is ran.

Forgot to mention that as a consideration, but understood. Thanks.
