    Another suggestion which I find handy when more options are needed than just renaming your files:

    • Go to the files tab and right click on the file. The select 'copy link'
    • The link is a Sharepoint location.
    • Edit the link to point to the folder location of your file in Sharepoint eg:

    Change this:
    https://ACME-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/r/personal/bugsbunny/Documents/Microsoft%20Teams%20Chat%20Files/myfile.zip?csf=1&web=1

    To this:
    https://ACME-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/r/personal/bugsbunny/Documents/Microsoft%20Teams%20Chat%20Files/

    Then edit your file in Sharepoint.
