[Tutorial] How to Install Windows Server 2016 using VMware ESXi(6.5 Web Client) | step by step guide

Hello again BHW lovers

All essential URLs could be found from my Github repository : https://github.com/mediabots/Install-Windows-Server-through-VMware-ESXi

On this demo, I am going to use www.oneprovider.com dedicated servers. I am sure many of you already know about them.

Most of their servers comes with "one click installer", which includes VMware ESXi Web Client.

## Now what is VMware ESXi?

Technical term :

VMware ESXi is an enterprise-class, type-1 hypervisor developed by VMware for deploying and serving virtual computers.
As a type-1 hypervisor, ESXi is not a software application that is installed on an operating system; instead,
it includes and integrates vital OS components, such as a kernel.

In common words:

Using VMware ESXi, one can create virtual machines. And its virtualization technique allow users to install own custom OS, for example Windows OS trail copy or macOS or any other OS f your choice.

## Requirements :

• A dedicated server with ESXi installed as Operating System
  
  
• A Web Browser
  
  
• Good Internet speed

## VIDEO Tutorial :
For step-by-step guide, please watch the whole Youtube Video

## Server Speedtest :
Tested on 1Gbps France(Paris) Server - https://www.speedtest.net/result/8743894889

So I am getting approx 1Gbps upload & download speed, which is quite awesome
