Veeam Backup and Replication is comprehensive data protection and disaster recovery solution which is capable of creating image-level backups of virtual and physical servers, cloud machines, and restoration as well. The technology used in the product optimizes data transfer and resource consumption, which helps to minimize storage costs and recovery time in case of a disaster. Here are some related uninstall articles: How to uninstall Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, how to uninstall GNS3 in Windows, how to uninstall builtin programs using PowerShell in Windows 10, how to uninstall a program via command prompt in Windows, and how to install and uninstall PowerShell on macOS.

In my lab environment, I had to uninstall Veeam Backup and Replication to demonstrate the steps needed to install Veeam Backup and Replication on a dedicated SQL Server. You may want to see the steps here. Also, see this guide on how to install and configure Veeam Backup and Replication 11 Community Edition with its default SQL Server Express Edition.

To uninstall Veeam Backup & Replication

Click on the Start menu, and select Control Panel as shown below.

Under Programs, select uninstall a program.

Click on Yes to begin the uninstallation process.

In addition, If the program list contains additional Veeam Backup & Replication components, right-click the remaining components and select Uninstall.
