Planned to install 5161 on my TZ270W.

Did the obligatory backup of the firmware, labeling 5151 to 5161 and got an error message.

Called Support. The CSR walked through the same steps and saw the same thing.

She pulled a TSR report and pointed out the setting, about which I had never known.

The firmware backup metadata

I had to unpin the original file, delete it, then delete the backup, and afterward all was good.
