No shortcut to app Windows Serwer Backup on Windows Server 2019

Hello.
I have a strange problem.
A few days ago app (GUI) WSB disappear from one of my WS2019 STANDARD, WSB of course installed. Server in AD, no AZURE.
In Serwer Manager - Tools there is no Windows Serwer Backup. In MMC I can't see WSB to attache. Shortcut from desktop disappear too.

I've just uninstalled and again installed WSB but it not help. Just file wbadmin.exe disappeard and appeard again in %windir%\system32\
I've copied shortcut from another WS2019 but it not works.

Strange is that my defined backup stil works, and I can see and manage it via wbadmin.exe. Logs OK - WSB works and make backup fine.
If it is important - I've installed on this server app MS SQL2017 few days ago.

So, how to restore WSB GIU?

Thanks in advance for help.
Greg

Hi,

You have to install network load balancing feature. The file wbadmin.msc appears in the windows32 folder after installation of the NLB.

So, please uninstall WSB feature and then reinstall WSB and NLB feature.

Best Regards,
Daniel

I've installed NLB and WSB GUI works fine !
It is strange because rest of my servers have no NLB installed.

Thank you!

You can create a new shortcut on desktop with a Target of %windir%\system32\wbadmin.msc

Helio.
There is no wbadmin.msc
I can copy it from another server and run, but I have information "MMC can't create snap-in"
I have shortcut (from another server) but is "empty" and doesn't work.
