   Use below. Change "echo ren" to "ren" to make it actually perform the file   
   rename instead of displaying the REN command line which is to be executed.   
      
   @echo off   
   setlocal   
   for %%N in (D:\Latest_MSI.gho) do (   
    for /f "tokens=1,2,3 delims=/ " %%X in ('echo %%~tN') do (   
    echo ren "%%N" "%%X-%%Y-%%Z_MSI.gho"   
    )   
   )
