That’s exactly the kind of setup I was looking for. I’ll give MangoHost’s Win10 VPS a try — sounds like a great balance of simplicity and power. Thanks!

I’ve been using a Windows 10 VPS https://mangohost.net/vps/windows/10 from MangoHost for a couple of months now and it’s been exactly what I needed. If you're looking for a familiar desktop-like environment, this is the way to go. It behaves just like a regular Win10 machine, so there’s barely any learning curve — which is perfect if you don’t want to deal with the slightly clunkier interface of Windows Server.
Performance-wise, I’ve run development tools, automation scripts, and even some light rendering without hiccups. Remote Desktop connection is smooth, and MangoHost gives full admin access right out of the gate.

Has anyone here had experience running a Windows 10 VPS for remote work or testing environments? I’m debating if it's better than going with a server edition, but I need something familiar and user-friendly.
