Should you encounter a problem where the GUI is missing after configuring a backup on your Windows Server, this blog post will guide you on clearing this hiccup. Get comprehensive details on what to do when your Windows Server Backup GUI goes missing.
Refer to the following solutions if your Windows Server Backup GUI has gone missing to solve the issue.
Let’s delve into these solutions in more detail.
If you find the GUI missing after setting up the backup, consider rebooting your computer. In some cases, a simple reboot is all it takes to effect recent changes. After restarting your computer, check to see if your problem is solved.
You must ensure that the Windows Server Backup feature is activated on your device. This feature’s status can be easily switched between enabled and disabled depending on your requirements. The steps for doing this are outlined below.
Upon installation, verify if the problem has been resolved.
If the Backup GUI still doesn’t appear, you need to add the Network Load Balancing functionality. NLB, an excellent feature, allows you to manage your network traffic across several servers efficiently. It operates comparable to a traffic controller for your network, guaranteeing smooth and effective traffic management. The installation process of Network Load Balancing is very similar to the installation of Windows Server Backup; simply locate the service in the Features section, select the related checkbox, and install it. That should solve the problem.
Alternatively, the Windows Server Backup and Network Load Balancing features can be installed through Windows PowerShell. To do this, open PowerShell as an administrator from your Start Menu and input the below commands.
Note: Make sure to follow the prescribed order
We hope the solutions mentioned in this post will help you resolve the issue.
