So,

I have uninstalled and re-installed and only console gets installed.

I need to install the full version to get the esxi backed up.

Am I missing something?

      which file/executable are you using? Are you running this from the backup server?

        If it is only the console then VBR may already be installed.  If not the case ensure you are using a supported server OS for the install of VBR.  Console installs on others without issue like Win11.

          Hi ​@Manny-MTRIT - Welcome to the Community! 

          Can you share the initial splash/install screen when you attempt to install Veeam? If it only shows the Console, or if it is the only one highlighted (other options greyed out), then it would appear Veeam is installed already as Chris noted.

          What OS are you running? Did you look in Programs and Features to see if Veeam is installed? What about C:\Program Files\ and check if there is a Veeam folder? Is there a Veeam folder in C:\ProgramData?

          Let us know.
