As you may have noticed, the Microsoft Evaluation Center is temporarily unavailable. While work is underway to restore this valuable service, you can access Windows Server and Windows client trials, evaluations, and related kits at the links below.

Note: The Deployment Lab Kits include the 90-day evaluations of Windows 11 or Windows 10 listed above. They are updated every 90 days with a fresh version of the 90-day evaluation software. As a result, please note that the Windows 10 deployment lab kit will be refreshed by May 16th with a new 90-day evaluation of Windows 10 Enterprise.

Heather_Poulsen - I can only imagine how many more of this style of request. I am traveling to a remote site and thought that I would be able to easily download the Hyper-V Server 2019 eval version (the free core hyper visor - not the one embedded within server 2019 standard (core)), but lo and behold, Microsoft has different plans. It seems like it would not take MS over a week to correct the access to the eval center. I wish these trials were available within my BusinessAccount. You posted a very nice list the basic full versions of Server 2022 and Server 2019, but not the version that I believe that I need. Do you know the location of Hyper-V Server 2019 (the last [at this time] free version of the Microsoft Hypervisor)?

Heather_Poulsen would you happen to have a link for the Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager trial ISO please and any other SCCM type server app? Thanks

SiTheITGuy - The Microsoft Evaluation Center is back up so you can once again find the ConfigMgr and Intune trials there. Note, they are currently listed under "Microsoft Security" in the top nav.

Heather_Poulsen Hello Heather.
I am trying to rebuild my corrupted Server 2016. I desperately need the Server 2016 Standard en-us ISO.
Thank you!
