    Hello,

    Can you elaborate on that?

    I'll tell you about my experience, until last year, we had

    - Enterprise Vault 11.1.5 installed on Windows 2008 R2 archiving Exchange 2010.

    Then we upgrade to

    - Enterprise Vault 12 installed on Windows 2012 R2 archiving Exchange 2016/9. (there is no upgrade path from v11 to v14)

    And finally

    - Enterprise Vault 14.1 installed on Windows 2019 archiving Exchange 2019.

    I don't have any experence File System Archiving but the Enterprise Vault™ Compatibility Charts say EV 12 FSA agent can be install on a windows server 2012

    Hi dk08,
    I always follow the upgrade_instrutions.pdf on the installation media.
    EV8 is no longer supported, you should looking to upgrade to version 12 or 14

    I removed this post prior, but I do not think the version numbers you are using are EV versoins. EV versions have a format of M.m.BBBB.R and 7.0 versions looked like 7.0.NNN>>>>

    To help a little more there was a major change in 7.5 which was also named after the year of release (2007). 8.0 came after .

    I have attached the 7.5 sp6 upgrade guide to see if it helps.

    I am sure you have your reasons but this is fundamentally a really bad idea as neither OS nor EV are supported anymore in a land and era where zero day exploits are the phrase of the week.
