The file name came up on the file clip in Movie Studio Platinum 16. Not sure what I did but it no longer appears. Any suggestions?

I think it's a preference that got turned off.

Try going to the program's View menu and checking the option to show Active Take Information. (Or use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+I)

Besides just following Steve's advice in this case, you should probably read about the "Hamburger" button(s) if you have not already.
It's the button with three horizontal lines.

"There are times when you don’t need quick access to the all various buttons in the UI. Some buttons you will use all the time while others only occasionally. Several areas of the UI have been designed so that you can customize which buttons are displayed by default. Examples of this are the tool bars found in the Video Preview window, the Trimmer window, and the audio and video Track Headers (and on the timeline event headers as well).

Access to the buttons that are not currently displayed can be achieved via the Hamburger button . The Hamburger button also gives you access to the Edit Visible Button Set command which enables you to control which buttons are displayed by default."

Here's my discussion of the hamburger menus and the other controls in the interface.
