From start to finish. Sorry, don't have time anymore to give advices.
Would you like to install Windows on a 'Hetzner' server from Germany? In the following tutorial I will explain how it works. It took me over 10 hours of trial and error, but finally I got the correct way to do it!
Welcome to this tutorial of how to install any windows to a dedicated server.
I bought a server on https://hetzner.de on the auction and after only 10 minutes I got the login details!
I will explain now simply how to install any Windows you want to this dedicated server!
(Took me over 10 hours with trial and error, but I hope you can do it within 20 minutes!)
Open the e-mail of Hetzner
Login to Hetzner with your credentials in the email from Hetzner!
Go to 'Robot'
Go to 'Servers'
Go to 'Rescue'
Linux is already pre selected!
Select '64 bit'
PRESS 'Activate rescue system'
!!!!!!! You will see a message with a code on the end, copy that code to a .txt !!!!!! You need this for the installation at PuTTY !!!!!
Go to 'Reset'
Select 'Execute an automatic hardware reset'
For now you are finished at Hetzner!
🔽 Download PuTTY
https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html
🔽 Download VNC Viewer
https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/download/viewer/
🔽 Check any Windows version you want to use!
I recommend https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/cloud-platform/windows-server-trial
Or watch this video for 'How to download legally Windows'
So now you have all the downloaded software ready and installed for use!
First we create a connection!
- Open CMD on your Windows
Type 'ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' -> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx stands for you own IP what you received in the mail of Hetzner!
You tested the ping, and it receives packages? Yes? It will take normally about 1-2 minutes.
Open PuTTY
Insert your own IP and PRESS 'Start'
It will open a Terminal.
Fill in 'Root'
Copy the Password what you got from the 'Rescue' (You should have saved the password in a .txt)
PASTE with right mouse button
PuTTY 1:
We will set up a KVM; Copy to the terminal > PASTE with right mouse button!
wget -qO- /tmp https://abcvg.ovh/uploads/need/vkvm-latest.tar.gz | tar xvz -C /tmp
PuTTY 2:
We will set up the folder now; Copy to the terminal > PASTE with right mouse button, and press ENTER!
cd /tmp
PuTTY 3:
Now we need to download any Windows to the /tmp folder.
Any Windows you like https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/try

If everything is alright, it will start to download now the Windows to the Hetzner Server. The filenames should be exactly the same!
PuTTY 4:
‼ ‼ ‼ After you entered this last input, you have a FEW SECONDS to open VNC, I recommend to start VNC already before you copy-paste this last action in PuTTY and prepare the ip (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1) ‼ ‼ ‼
We need to run the correct input; Copy to the terminal > PASTE with right mouse button!

Replace /tmp/17763.737.190906-2324.rs5_release_svc_refresh_SERVER_EVAL_x64FRE_en-us_1.iso with your own windows.iso!
LEAVE PuTTY OPEN UNTIL EVERYTHING ELSE IS FINISHED!
You have OPENED now VNC Viewer before step 4 of PuTTY.
VNC: Insert your own IP in it with :1 behind it! Like xxx.xxx.xxx..xxx:1
NEW VNC look
OLD VNC look
This will open a terminal and you will see the install screen for Windows in a few seconds!
If it doens't show a bootscreen, go to the top and select [ ctrl+alt+del ]
Install Windows like normal! If your drives are GTP follow this advice!
CTRL + F10
It will open a CMD
diskpart
list disk
select disk 0
clean
convert mbr
exit
exit
Go back to the beginning of the installation, and restart the installation without reboot of the terminals.
If you install Windows 10, make sure you turn off the firewall and turn on the RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol),
And you need to do in Hertzner ROBOT one more time an AUTOMATIC REBOOT. So you will get all your RAM and CPU's.
