Hi folks
I'm using the Windows 2025 server on a bog standard (decent) laptop as a Workstation
removed all the "server" specific stuff such as ctrl,alt,delete to logon, nag screens about log when system is shutdown / rebooted, password restrictions, rdp restrictions etc. You can get 180 day (6 times extendable) free trial if you want to try this too.


It's far better than std windows 11, also no bloat. Only Macrium needs a "server" version of software --otherwise everything I need including Office 2021 runs perfectly. Also Hyper-V (good though it is on W11 pro) seems even better on the server ---note though there's no "Quick create VM wizard" but IMHO if you can turn the server int a desktop creatng a HYPERV VM should be chllds play. I'll set up a couple of Linux VM's on this just to test -- Windows VM's are a doddle.
