Restore of o365 Backup Files

[Marc_Dugas]

Hello everyone, we received our o365 backup as Veeam backup files from our provider after we terminated the cooperation. Can I restore them somehow? Thanks for your tips

Hi Marc

You need to install VBO365 to have access to the backups inside the adb files (VBO365 backup format).

You can try to open the adb files with the VBO365 Restore Explorer. Example: Add adb in Sharepoint Explorer

Or you can add the location of the received backup files as a new VBO365 backup repo in your vbo365 server.
If you now add your organization (M365 tenant) to the VBO365 server, you will see the backups inside vbo365 console todo the restores.

Correct. Please note that you can also install the free Community edition to do so if you don't have licenses for it.

One question though... When you said you received it into Veeam format, is it indeed adb files or is it a VBK format?
