Hourly billing Win 10 VPS

We need to do some test on Win 10. However, there is not a Win10 nearby. I know Vultr and Atlantic.net provide Windows VPS, but they don't seem to have Win10. I'm wondering if any providers that I don't know provide Win10 VPS, preferably hourly billing. Thanks.

    Not possible.

    Providing Windows 10 on a server is a breach of Microsoft's license.

    Thanks. Looks like I have to go in the real world to find a physical one.

  • Why don't you just load the ISO and manually install it on Vultr? As long as you have a license key, the DC couldn't careless what version of Windows you are running.

    MS offers free Windows 10 in Hyper-v, Vmware and Virtualbox images. These may suffice for your testing requirements.

    LOL!!

    I just downloaded the 5GB image from Microsoft official website. I actually just need to use it for a test for 15 minutes, and will permanently delete it.

  • Vultr with custom ISO.

    I think Windows 2012 is similar as Windows 10 or Maybe Windows server 2016 will be similar to Windows 10.

    Azure has windows 10 enterprise with per minute billing.

    Windows 2012 R2 is 8.1 and 2016 is win 10. Even if they are they same core, they aren't the exact same OS.

    I know this is an old question, but I am sure that people, like me, can come here if they need the same thing.

    So for the Azure, it's not good at all, theu ask you to give your credit card information, even for testing, I don't like that !!
