Standard, Datacenter or Essentials?

Each edition is a separate product with its own page. This is how Microsoft describes them:

Edition Microsoft’s description Sold here for
Standard Ideal for physical or minimally virtualized environments. 2025, 2022, 2019, 2016
Datacenter Ideal for highly virtualized datacenters and cloud environments. 2025, 2022, 2019, 2016

Sources: Windows Server pricing and Get started with Windows Server Essentials.

Microsoft sets the licensing rights of each edition, including its virtualization rights. Check its Windows Server licensing guidance for your setup. Your license key activates the edition named on this page, on 1 server.

Questions about Windows Server licenses

What does Windows Server 2019 Datacenter activate?

It activates the edition named on this page, on 1 server. Other editions and versions are separate products, each with its own page.

Do I need RDS CALs to use Remote Desktop?

RDS CALs are separate products, sold in packs of 50 as User CALs or Device CALs. Microsoft’s licensing terms say which users and devices need them: check them for your setup. You can find the packs for each version in Windows Server license keys.

Which Windows Server version should I buy?

The one your applications support. Compare the support end dates above before you decide.

Can I reinstall Windows Server or move the license to another server?

RETAIL Licenses can’t be reused. If you later reinstall the software or the operating system, or change the server’s hardware, that activation can’t be used again, and our warranty doesn’t cover it. Your statutory rights are not affected.

  1. Download Windows Server 2019 from the Microsoft Evaluation Center: the link is in the Download tab.
  2. Install the edition you bought, with Desktop Experience. Activate it before making the server a domain controller.
  3. Open Command Prompt as administrator and run this command with your license key:

DISM /online /Set-Edition:ServerDatacenter /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /AcceptEula

Restart the server when it asks you to.

Microsoft explains how to convert editions and enter a product key in Convert Windows Server editions and license types.

To install Windows Server 2019 step by step, with screenshots, see our guide: How to Install Windows Server 2019.

Official download from Microsoft

Download from the Microsoft Evaluation Center (official website). Microsoft provides Windows Server there as an evaluation version: after installing it, you convert it to the full version with the license key you bought from us. Install the same edition you bought, with Desktop Experience, and convert it before making the server a domain controller.

Download Windows Server 2019 from Microsoft

Microsoft asks you to fill in a short form before the download starts.

Then activate it with your license key: the steps are in the How to activate tab.

    I received my license immediately after purchase, but when I tried activating it the software showed an “invalid license” message. I contacted support and they quickly noticed I had installed the wrong version. They sent the correct installer and the key worked perfectly.
