Question Convert iPAQ backup file (pbf) to new Sprite Backup format

Hello Team,

My H6315 was stolen, along with my PC, so I can not restore via ActiveSync. However I have a .pbf file created by iPAQ backup on a memory card.
Someone please let me know a way to convert this useless pbf file to some kind of explorable file (newer Sprite Backup pbf, or SPB Backup or STG backup).
I think iPAQ backup allows to restore on different device of equivalent model so that in theory it is possible to convert using another H6315 device.
Which I don't have :(

I tried to use Sprite Explorer (from SpriteBackup v6.5) but they changed file format sometime in 3.x so that it can not open my pbf file (*)

In fact Sprite Explorer crashes when I try to open an older pbf file (**)

Sprite Software support did not want to hear anything about these crashes, because they say these files are not supported any more (***)

Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks!
