Is there anyway, without deleting, renaming, and uploading again? Can I just go into the /attachments folder and rename them? Will they work?

That won't work.

You'd need to use something such as PHPMyAdmin or something else (even mysql itself) where you can run a query.

You'd have to get the attachment ID of the current attachment (put your mouse over the download link and it is the value after aid=.

The query to run would be:

UPDATE mybb_attachments SET filename='my new filename.txt' WHERE aid='AID HERE';

Change mybb_ to your table prefix.

I appreciate it! That worked great!
