    Backup Exec requires a Server OS for installation of the full product - for details please refer to the latest SCL (Software Compatibility List) which you can find here:

    You could however install the Remote Admin Console on a Windows 11 machine, which would allow you to connect to a full Backup Exec Installation on another server.
