This may mean you need to use “net use” to map it so you can specify a different username. Do this from the Backup & Replication main backup server itself by browsing to \\COMPUTERNAME\\Admin$ using the credentials you’re going to use for Veeam.

Check to see if you can reach the administrative shares on the proxy VM.

If you aren’t using the Administrator account (and it’s a good idea not to) does the account you want to use have Administrator rights on the proxy VM, and the correct password? I sometimes forget to add the domain service account I created to the local administrators group.

This alone fixes 90% of the issues I’ve seen. If you are using local accounts you’ll want to specify “SERVERNAME\username” instead, using what the proxy knows as its name. Don’t use the “.\username” format and don’t omit the domain part itself.

If you’re like me and seeing proxy install errors maybe some of these will fix you up. Every once in a while I struggle a little to add a new Veeam Backup & Replication hot-add proxy.
