If you want to keep files on several Windows Servers synchronized, you can use DFS Namespaces feature (formerly "Distributed File System"). Both servers must join the same Domain, as this feature can only be configured on the Domain Controller.

If you are to provide Nextcloud-like service to remote clients, you should use Linux server. You can create Linux VM on a Windows dedicated server via Hyper-V.
