Veeam Backup & Replication 13 Windows Install
Veeam Backup & Replication is a wonderful product that I’ve been using for years. I’ve used it many times to recovery from various situations, and it’s been a real lifesaver.
VBR (Veeam Backup & Replication) is backup software that can back up your systems, whether they are bare-metal, cloud, or VMs. VBR supports various hypervisors, including VMware, Hyper-V, Nutanix, Proxmox, and others, and has expanded its support to include backing up raw file shares or object storage. Veeam keeps adding more and more features to VBR. VBR is part of the Veeam Data Platform.
In this post, I will show you step by step how to install Veeam Backup & Replication 13 on Windows.
