Customer accidentally erased the export path

Have a customer that was running the Aloha Manager to export daily sales to a csv file. Under the export settings, the path
was something like D:\exports\sales.csv . However before the sales.cv part there was something that allowed the files not to overwrite each other. Sort of like the way a dated folder gets named - 20150710sales.csv and 20150709sales.csv .
The part that is missing is the part that puts the variables in for the dated folder.
This is not done from wink or with a datestamp batch file - though I might end up going that route.
According to the customer they simply manually ran the export and it was there.
Does anyone have an idea on the nomenclature that may have been used to pull this off?
Thanks in advance.
 
I think you need to have a batch file fire this. I am not aware of anything that renames it in an export path. I usually just have them rename 1 file and continue to export.
