Can you clarify what role does this Windows XP computer is supposed to carry in your data protection story? As the answer varies a lot depending on that.

Just for fun, so I can use it to read and write to vintage tape drives.

This does not really answer my question. Can you clarify if you want to backup this computer, or if you want to install some Veeam product on this computer? And if the latter, then which Veeam product - Veeam Backup & Replication?

I want to install Veeam Backup on Windows XP 32bit so I can write files and folders to vintage tape drives.

My confusion was due to the fact that we have four different products which names start from "Veeam Backup" words: & Replication, for Office 365, for AWS and for Azure ;)

Since you're talking about tape support, I assume you're asking about the product called "Veeam Backup & Replication". The native tape support functionality was added in version 7.0 of this product, which already did not support installation on Windows XP. The last Veeam Backup & Replication version that supported installation on Windows XP was version 6.5, which did not support tape yet.

OK thanks. Got my answer then. No Veeam tape backup on Windows XP 32bit.
