Windows Server 2025 OS download

Hello Philip Che,

The official download for Windows Server 2025 ISO is provided directly by Microsoft through the Microsoft Evaluation Center. This is the only supported and legitimate source for obtaining the installation media. You can select the ISO in different languages and editions, and the evaluation version is valid for 180 days. After installation, you must activate it online within 10 days to avoid automatic shutdown.

Here is the correct location:

Microsoft Evaluation Center – Windows Server 2025 ISO

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/download-windows-server-2025 (microsoft.com in Bing)

If you require licensed production media rather than evaluation, you need to access it via the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) or through your Microsoft licensing partner. The Evaluation Center only provides trial images, while VLSC provides the full release ISO for customers with valid agreements.

I hope you've found something useful here. If it helps you get more insight into the issue, it's appreciated to accept the answer. Should you have more questions, feel free to leave a message. Have a nice day!

Domic Vo.

Windows Server 2025 can be downloaded as a free 180-day evaluation from the Microsoft Evaluation Center. Use the Windows Server 2025 evaluation download page referenced from the Windows Server 2025 release health documentation:

• Go to the Microsoft Evaluation Center page for Windows Server 2025 (linked as Microsoft Evaluation Center in the release health article) and download the ISO for evaluation.

For production licensing and non-evaluation media, use standard commercial channels (such as volume licensing or authorized resellers) associated with the organization.
