Timestampeder
Prepends a timestamp to your file download names
Timestampeder is a simple Chrome extension to prefix a timestamp to your file download names.
This Chrome extension was originally made for my personal use to back up files from my web2py web servers.
Filenaming format is now using this method as requested in the comments (2022-03-25_16.10.55) yielding 2022-03-25_16.10.55-Filename.ext

not possible to store information about timezone or to force to UTC. Apart from that, great.
Works perfectly for my use case. A useful enhancement would be to have the option for it only do this with a specific filename. For example if the file is called report.pdf then it renames it with date time added. Otherwise it does not.
Working smoothly.

This is a very much needed function for web browsers. I'd also like to see some separation of fields as the other review. Being able to define which fields would also be useful, eg, this output would be ideal: (`date +"%d-%m-%Y_%H.%M.%S"`) 25-03-2022_16.10.55

Does as it says. Would have liked slightly more customizability (personally prefer "2021-12-15 - filename" to the "20211215filename" that is used, but hey, if I needed it that badly I should figure out coding it myself. The only reason this doesn't get 5 stars is that it seems to force the Save-As location to open in Downloads rather than the last-used location that Chrome can normally be set to do, which means I have to navigate back to my desired destination each download
