the problem was solved by removing the installer on targer server then do update again from VBR. Thanks ​@coolsport00 ​@Iams3le

During the VBR upgrade, did you select “Update remote components automatically”? Your image shared shows this must have been selected due to the information on it as discussed here and here.

When not selected, you would have a similar windows as below: See for more information: How to upgrade Veeam Backup and Replication v11 to 12.1 - TechDirectArchive
