I applied the fix. The uninstall worked this time. I had to double-check just to make sure. I am still attaching the log files.

Hi,

Great, it seems the latest update KB5028169 is also installed? Are you still getting errors when you try to re-install the backup feature?
 
KB5028169 is installed.

I was able to install the Windows Server Backup again but the administrative tools for it are still not present. Removing it also succeeded again.

I went back to step #68 where we were able to get it installed the first time and performed those tasks again.

The fix was successful. After installing it again the tools are still not accessible. I searched for the MMC and found it but when I tried to run it directly it fails. I believe this is the same thing that was happening before.

For some reason wbadmin.msc is missing in the System32 folder.

Hi,

This looks better, are you now able to open the Windows Backup feature?
 
The wbadmin.msc opens but it has a message stating, MMC could not create the snap-in.
 
Hi,


Upload the Event Viewer logs.
  • Click the Start button and in the search box, type Command Prompt
  • When you see Command Prompt on the list, right-click on it and select Run as administrator.
    Copy and paste the following commands one at a time into the command prompt and press enter after each.
    Code:
    wevtutil epl SYSTEM "%userprofile%\Desktop\System.evt"
    wevtutil epl APPLICATION "%userprofile%\Desktop\Application.evt"
    PowerShell Compress-Archive -Path "%userprofile%\Desktop\*.evt" -DestinationPath "%UserProfile%\Desktop\EventLogs.zip"
  • These commands will collect the System and Application logs and create EventsLogs.zip on your Desktop.
  • Attach this file in your next reply.
 
No, there is no further information. I also checked Event Viewer to see if it might be generating any errors there and did not see anything.
 
I believe this is a good idea. There seems to be some weird things going on with this server. I have two third-party programs running on this server including our antivirus' management tools. I have never had the need to do an in-place upgrade. I will need to make some additional backups and potentially move some programs off to another server. I'm not sure yet when I will have time to do that.
