Simple, readable, user-friendly names for all downloadable files

OSIsoft's downloadable files are inconsistently named; use hyphens (-), underscores (_), and concatenations instead of spaces; and sometimes contain unnecessary abbreviations. For users who keep their OSIsoft files in the same folder, this means either grouping files into subfolders that have readable names or renaming the individual files if they want to identify their files by readable names. Please consider using straightforward, intuitive names for OSIsoft's files.


Here are some examples:


Current Name

Proposed Name

OSIsoft.UFL_1.1.0.76_.exe

RDBMSPIx64_3.23.3.7_.exe

    Can someone please move this to be a Product Downloads suggestion for myOSIsoft (https://feedback.osisoft.com/forums/920320-myosisoft?category_id=357634)? At the time that this was posted, there was no place on OSIsoft UserVoice for suggestions about the website.
