How to install through DIM without DIM numbers (if I deleted them by mistake)?

Hello! I have a little question about DIM (Download Install Manger). I have some products downloaded long ago, and cause I found these DIM names too long, I renamed some of them (that means I deleted numbers like IM00016281-01_ and renamed .zip files as simple Michael5.zip or Victoria6.zip etc. It made serching in my CD and DVDs much easier but now I want to install some of such products and I don't see them in DIM working offline. I attempted to rename the archives by adding custom DIM numbers, so I'm able to install them but dot't see them in Smart Content Panel nor in the Content Library. How to learn these DIM (or SKU?) numbers corresponding to the products? Can they be written somewhere in the manifest files or somewhere else? Searching for these numbers through the Web is not always successful, especially for older products.

    I think the easiest way would be to go to My Account > Product Library, find the product page, and hover the mouse over the manual download button, that will show the name of the .zip file.

    Although if you have a fast connection and don't have a download cap, it would probably be faster to redownload the files in DIM.

    I use Everything from voidtools.com, free and fast searching on filenames, which might be an alternative to renaming the zips.
