I'm trying to do an ARM migration in a classic virtual network.
When I click Validate, I get the following error.

---------------------------------------------------------------
VM XXXXX in HostedService XXXXX is currently configured with the Azure Backup service and therefore currently not supported for Migration. 
To migrate this VM, please follow the procedure described at https://aka.ms/vmbackupmigration. 
---------------------------------------------------------------

Backup is disabled.
However, looking at the URL below, it says to delete the extension, but is it okay to delete the [Microsoft.Azure.RecoveryServices] extension?
Also, for testing purposes, if I enable backup again, do I need to install the [Microsoft.Azure.RecoveryServices] agent again?
