Would be nice if external downloads could be connected to the app

I recognize that some of the developers on Itch like to use external sites like Mega or G-Drive, and I do not mind downloading the games from those sites, but once the game has been downloaded and extracted to the games folder monitored by the app I am still unable to index it when scanning the folder.  If there was a way to generate the receipt file for an externally downloaded and installed game that would be very helpful.  Just a thought.

Also I recognize this may already be solved by someone or an existing tool, but I have spent a couple of days searching forums and search engines with little result.

Thanks.

any luck in figuring this out?
