How to install Windows server edition on a hetzner dedicated server
How to install Windows server edition on a Hetzner dedicated server
Hetzner has multiple ways of installing windows server editions on dedicated nodes, I'll try to cover some because neither hetzner nor anyone made any sensible fucking posting about this and its tiresome.

## Method 1
Installing Windows server image on hetzner using Rescue system and KVM
- Go to [this site](https://robot.your-server.de/server)
- Click server and from the list of servers if you have, click on your server
- Click *rescue* and you will see this

- From here click *activate rescue system*
- Now the page will give you ssh logins to rescue system, copy these somewhere safe we will need them later
- Now go to *reset* section which is just to the left of *rescue* tab

- Click *order an automatic hardware reset* - and then click send, this is like hard rebooting your server
- Now, when the server reboots it will reboot once into the rescue system mode
How will you know its up?
### How will you know its up?
We need to ssh into the server and you will know if its up cause ssh will respond, install putty and connect to the IP of the server with port 22 and the logins that we saved earlier.
Beep boop, you are in on ssh in rescue system.
Let's get to real work from this point

- Download and extract the portable qemu-kvm. /tmp folder is enough for this portable qemu-kvm. Just run this<br>
`wget -qO- /tmp https://github.com/AnimeKaizoku/InstallWindowsOnHetzner/raw/main/vkvm.tar.gz | tar xvz -C /tmp`
- If you dedicated server has a hard drive that is more than 2TB then you need to use the UEFI version too, run this one only if you have a drive that is bigger than 2tb in size (if you have multiple drives of 2tb you can ignore this step)<br>
`wget -qO- /tmp https://github.com/AnimeKaizoku/InstallWindowsOnHetzner/raw/main/uefi.tar.gz | tar -xvz -C /tmp`
- Okay, we are setup on our emulator, lets download a windows ISO and what better place than hetzner itself?

Hetzner has 2 types of mirrors - Internal and external, the internal one is accessible without login from *inside the hetzner network* and external one is public.
We will use the external one to see the path of the image we want and use the internal url (they both have same structure)
