Generating secure installer...
Our installer requires a secondary drive as a temporary workspace for downloading and preparing the Windows installation files. The primary drive is used exclusively for Windows installation, ensuring a clean setup. The secondary drive can be as small as 10GB.
Yes, this installer is specifically designed for Hetzner dedicated servers. It includes special network configuration for Hetzner's unique point-to-point routing system (/32 subnet). Using it on other providers may result in network connectivity issues.
The entire process typically takes 15-30 minutes, depending on your server specifications and network speed. This includes downloading the Windows ISO, preparing the installation media, and the actual Windows installation.
WARNING: The installation will completely wipe your primary disk. All existing data will be lost. Make sure to backup any important data before proceeding with the installation.
No, you don't need a license immediately. Windows Server runs in evaluation mode for 180 days, giving you plenty of time to test and evaluate before purchasing a license. This is perfect for development, testing, or temporary deployments. After 180 days, you'll need to activate with a valid license or reinstall.
No, this installer is designed specifically for Hetzner dedicated servers. Hetzner Cloud (VPS) servers have different architecture and don't support custom OS installations in the same way.
The installer requires 2 drives to function properly. If your server only has one drive, you would need to add a second drive or use a different installation method. The second drive is used as temporary workspace and can be removed after installation.
Yes, we use encrypted tokens and secure HTTPS connections. Each installation generates a unique, time-limited token that expires after use. The core installation scripts are protected and never exposed to the public.
The installer automatically configures: • Static IP with /32 subnet (Hetzner standard) • Correct gateway routing • Hetzner DNS servers (185.12.64.1, 185.12.64.2) • Windows Firewall rules for RDP access • Network adapter optimization for server use
Yes, you can specify your preferred Windows version, administrator password, and network settings. However, the core installation process is standardized to ensure compatibility with Hetzner infrastructure.
