[3.3.x] Support Forum • Finding the original name of an uploaded image

Hi,
Bit of a strange request.

On some of our forum posts members have uploaded pictures.
The pictures display fine on the forum.
I can find the pictures fine in the phpbb_attachments table.
The real file name matches fine.
However the physical filename listed in the phpbb_attachments table doesnt physically exist in the /files/ directory.

There are ~11,000+ in there but some of them that display fine in the forum, that can open in a new tab, that i can download - dont match the physical_filename listed in the phpbb_attachments table.

So my question is - how can I find what they are actually saved as in the /files directory? And why might they be different?

Thanks
