Greetings thomasmaurer, thank you for sharing this information. I have upgraded my Windows Server 2008 R2, to Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard, and now that I have the Windows Server 2019 setup running, it shows that I can't upgrade and keep the installed apps and files. (have an online backup too, on another server, though an upgrade is preferable).  Also I noticed that one of your screenshots has Datacenter on it. Would I have to upgrade the Server 2012 R2 Standard to the "Datacenter" edition first? The upgrade was successful, running 6.3.9600 N/A Build 9600. It's running on an Ubuntu Linux VPS. … and aye, I already noticed that IIS did not survive the upgrade, and my server website is not working now, which is needed for my HalcyonGrid. https://github.com/HalcyonGrid

 

 

Thank you, Shalom.

 

Also this kept appearing, and I didn't write any HTML here, I just added hyperlinks.
