Turn off Veeam Agent for Windows "create media" warning ?

Post by zadrian »

Is there a way to turn off Veeam Agent for Windows "create media" warning for "free version"?

All of my PCs & laptops are using VAW 3.x or 4.x (current updating). But I am only backing up user personal files at file level so I do not really need the recovery media.

1. Is there a registry setting to turn the warning off ?
2. Is there a command setting to turn the warning off ?
3. Else is there a command line where I can just run the media creation to like c:\a ? (then I will delete the folder) ?.
Thanks

I have tried the registry key but it did not work...

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Endpoint Backup\RecoveryMediaVersion (REG_SZ). The valus is still 10.0 which is the OS version.

At least Veeam should know what the key value is for the current Veeam 4.01 ? But for upgrades, this not the key as I have tried on a machine with VAW 3 then update to VAW 4, the key valus is same but VAW shows media version error etc.
