I don't understand what you want to do. Are you asking me:

    For these cases i built a path test\date based name and export to this path and i send mail the exported log.

    The exported log contains also timestamp.

     

    testexecute.mht -> exported to \results\myApp\03-19-2020\myAPP03-19-2020-100005.mht

     

    But as Wamboo  i dunnot understand clearly what u want.

        adding on to all of the other comments, I'd suggest using aqDateTime to get a timestamp (when you are initally creating these mht files) or using something lke ProjectSuite.TestItems.Current.ProjectName to get the relevant unique name for each of your runs.
