blgc Posted March 23 Posted March 23 (edited) May I request that my vps be converted into a Windows one? Its currently on linux Β the vps is vps8 Edited March 23 by blgc typo
MoneyBroz Posted March 23 Posted March 23 We can do that for you. Be aware that Windows Server comes with a 180 day free trial, after that you must pay for a license to continue using it. Let us know if you need any data backed up and we can continue.
blgc Posted March 23 Author Posted March 23 (edited) it is a new vps so no need for backup Edited March 23 by blgc typo
MoneyBroz Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Also send an email from the email associated with this VPS account so we can verify your identity.
Krydos Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Do you want Windows Server 2025? Also are you aware that after the 180 days of trial you must provide your own legally obtained license, such as fromΒ https://www.mychoicesoftware.com/products/microsoft-windows-server-2025-standard-16-core-licenseΒ which costs about $650 USD? We can also install Windows Server 2022 which is slightly cheaper licenseΒ https://www.mychoicesoftware.com/products/microsoft-windows-server-2022-standard-16-core-licenseΒ which is "only" $510 USD. Since you're posting from a forum account that doesn't match the VPS email address we'll also need to verify your email address like MoneyBroz said before we can change the OS. The easiest way to do that is to send an email to support@heliohost.org from the email address you used to pay for the VPS.
blgc Posted March 23 Author Posted March 23 Just the same as the OS and SQL Server that was on my VPS113, thank you I don't have the access to the email of my client, but I can send the screenshot of the email that was sent to me of the purchase
Krydos Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Ok, you can prove ownership by logging in to VPS8 SSH and running this command echo "WXt7FNdBhLCh6aUhAbwL" > /home/hpgtech/verify.txt Let us know once you're done.

Krydos Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Marking this as solved since the OS has been changed as requested. Wolstech will contact you via forum private message to discuss further details.
blgc Posted March 25 Author Posted March 25 Thank you so much, May I ask for a remote desktop access?
