In this video, I will show you how you can create your own custom windows image template so that you can install WIndows on your DigitalOcean or Linode account.

Using this method you can create any version of windows like Windows 10, Windows Server 2012/2016/2019

And this is the most demanding video tutorial and I tried my best to show you these tricks. SO from now, you don't need to use any other created pre-built windows image file to install on your DigitalOcean & Linode server.

I did not get enough time to create videos but if you inspire me to do so, then I will do my best. SO kindly share my videos, like my videos, and please subscribe to my channel which I really appreciate, and this encourages me to make demandable videos for you.
