The login process and installation of the operating system is the same as the procedure published in the previous article Getting started with VPS, therefore we will start with the step when you launch the VNC console either through an external application or through the HTML 5 console under the client section.
In the default setting for all VPS Windows servers, the MS Windows Server 2019 EN is the default operating system used for installation.

You have the following options:
- MS Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard ed. EN

Because your server is connected to a public network, disable the option to detect your computer immediately after login by clicking on the No button.

Sending Ctrl+Alt+Del through the Console in the Control panel
It may happen that instead of the Windows login dialog, you will see the introductory page with a message asking you to press the Ctrl+Alt+Delete key combination to unlock.
![Introductory page Introductory page](/wp-content/uploads/images/stories/vps/staticwin/52.png)
Using the Crtl + Alt + Del key combination in the right upper corner of the console will send it to the server.
