Veeam Backup & Replication • v12.3.1.1139 "some Veeam Backup & Replication components are missing"

Trying to upgrade to v12.3.1.1139 from v12.3.0.310 and get the message "some Veeam Backup & Replication components are missing. Remove the installed Veeam Backup and Replication components manually and start the setup wizard again".

What exactly this message mean? Does "Remove the installed Veeam Backup and Replication components manually" mean fully uninstall B&R?

Whenever we have upgraded B&R it installs a load of components that we don't use, so we uninstall those after the upgrade. This is something we have done for years and has also been discussed in this forum quite a lot recently. It has never caused an issue with a future upgrade until now.

Is this now something that is going to choke future upgrades?
