I have the October release of Hyper-V Server 2019 from third-party sources installed.
Can I manually install 2019-02 for Windows Server 2019 from your link?
edit: I have successfully applied the patch. Now Remote Desktop works! Thank you!

If the re-release of Server 2019 was Nov. 13 of last year, why oh why is Hyper-V Server 2019 taking for-ev-er to be released for download? I have an important deployment where I need this, and I really don't want to have to install Hyper-V Server 2016. I have a really tight timeline, so I may be forced to go that route. I guess I just don't understand how it could be such a different build that it would take well over 3 extra month to release from the rest of the Server 2019 family.
- rspeakerBrass Contributorhey! I actually gave up on all this mess and setup 2016 again. it works like a champ. Dunno when ill get the ballz to setup 2019 once all this madness is sorted...

I hear your frustration and appreciate your position. I am hopeful that we will be able to release Microsoft Hyper-V 2019 in the next few weeks although I can't give you an exact date yet.

Hi Mary Hoffman -
I think we can all understand the difficult position you are in - unable to commit anything officially, but wanting to be helpful.
But, please, understand the situation many of us are in as well. We need *some* kind of guidance (which you seem to have recently provided) as to when/how Hyper-V Server 2019 will be delivered.
My biggest complaint isnt that you (Microsoft) dont know exactly when, but rather the deafening silence from Microsoft over the past few *months* about status.
What is the best place to go for updated status on delivery dates for Hyper-V Server? I assume this isnt it - The last official update that I am aware of was mid January - its been a while.
Thank you for any help and/or guidance....

Well after waiting month and month for Hyper-V 2019 to be available again I've given up! Microsoft doesn't bother to update us on the situation and expects us to idly sit by and cross our fingers it will one day come out.
Once again Microsoft treat us like idiots, So after 6 months of waiting and no updates i took thhe leap and decided to spend the cash and purchase VMware ESXi and I have too say despite the cost this has been the best decision i've ever made! It's great to finally deal with a company that actually knows what they're doing and has a high regard to 2 things Microsoft has sadly forgotten about, that being 1.) Quality Control and 2.) Customer Service.
I couldn't be happier with my purchase and highly advise everyone out there to make the switch hif you can afford it, you will not be dissapointed. Also VMware don't use their own customers as guinea pigs to test their new software.
This is the current quality of expertise at Microsoft - I opened up a live chat to Microsoft the other day and enquired about Hyper-V 2019. The online technician advised me that he was not familiar with that product and as such Microsoft does not support it. I asked him "Who is the company that makes Hyper-V?" I gave him 4 minutes before i decided to tell him the answer was Microsoft. I thought to myself this is silly, so opened up another live chat and sadly that was the same response I reveived from Microsoft expert #2.
What a joke! Microsoft has gone downhill the last few years, its a joke and the faster a competing desktop operating system can come out the better.
- rspeakerBrass Contributor
What a joke!!!
Yeah, totally pathetic. We know the products better than their own people.
I just gave-up since 2019 has a bug to not allow Remote Desktopping in, and went back to Hyper-V 2016 Server. And Im happy for now.
MS is going the way of the Dodo! You hear me, Satya??!!- Mary Hoffman

About the time we were getting ready to re-release Windows Server 2019 after the October recall, a new issue was discovered affecting only the HYPER-V media which prevented us from re-releasing it along with the rest of the Windows Server 2019 media. We have a fix and are working on getting the media validated and published as quickly as we can. We recognize that this is a pain point for our customers and apologize for the delay.
