Maybe you could rename the backup if you want to keep the snapsho
Thanks. As I mentioned in a similar reply I have had similar
experiences if the machine stays dead... but I replaced it with new
identical HW and would like to keep the same name :)

Thanks - that has been my experience too.
However, I am not disabling backups for that device as I replaced it
with an identical one

Are you sure this is "safe"?

edit ../pc//backups and replace incr by full.
It will not change the content of your backup but you should be able to avoid
deletion of it.
On the other hand - if you don't make new backups it will not be removed anyway

My device died and I am no longer to access the device or the data on
the device.
I would therefore like to save the last incremental as a "full" &
"filled" backup so that I can mark it to "keep" it as the last valid
backup.
Is there any reliable way to convert the (last) incremental into a
full
