How to View & Manually Edit the Contents of an .stp Manifest Template File for SharePoint
- Copy and rename the customfile.stp file extension to customfile.cab
- Extract contents (I used WinRar)
- Open the manifest.xml file in an editor (Visual Studio, Notepad, Dreamweaver,etc.)
- Edit the Manifest.xml file as desired
- Using the Command Prompt, navigate to the directory/folder containing the edited manifest file (using “cd directoryname)
- type the following command substituting your desired file names
- makecab.exe manifest.xml mytemplatename.stp
- The cab should now appear in the folder
- Rename the .cab to .stp
- Upload template to SharePoint
Do not change the template ID as this refers to the type of site template it is: Example: 1 = STS (SharePoint Team Site) – “windows SharePoint Services Site”, “Team Site”, “Blank Site”, “Document Workspace”
Template ID Reference: http://www.shareesblog.com/?p=234

Chaya - Digital Zen 
Thanks for the simple steps. I needed to update a lookup column guid in the manifest.xml and this really helped.
I have followed your steps. But getting error. It says, archive not found. Please help. I dont know what went wrong.
you are likely not using the right paths/filenames for your setup – double check and try again
