I'm using IzPack 5 (izpack-dist-5.2.4) on a Windows 11 box with java 11.
overrideRenameTo attribute has no effect on existing file that is always replaced. Existing file is lost (no .bak file).

...
       <pack name="frontend" preselected="yes" required="yes">
            <description>frontend</description>
            <file src="C:\Temp\frontend.zip" targetdir="$INSTALL_PATH" unpack="true" override="true" overrideRenameTo="*.bak">
<archivefileset dir="front">
<include name="assets\config\appConfig.json"/>
</archivefileset>
</file>
...
Same result without <archivefileset> ou <include> element.

Am I missing something ?
Any hint appreciate
