Running Backup Exec 2014 and I cannot upgrade to Backup Exec 2020 due to the Vmware ESX version we are running.  How can I fix the "Backup Exec has stopped working" error?

@tmd The link provided above https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100045500.html   has a workaround.

Fixed!  I uninstalled .NET 4.8 and installed .NET 4.0.  (Don't have the install disk handy)  And the backups were running all the time the console was crashed.

 

Thank you!

So is the upgrade from BUE 15 to BUE 20 free?
