My VPS/Dedicated server crashes / shutdown every hour

My VPS/Dedicated server with a Windows evaluation license installed shuts down/crashes every hour

The reason why this happens is most likely because you have an evaluation license of the Windows Server OS installed, and that license has expired. You can check this by logging in with NoVNC or RDP and looking at the bottom right corner.

If there is something like ‚Windows license is expired,‘ your license is expired. Microsoft shuts down Windows servers without an active license every hour.

To resolve this issue, please install a valid license bought from an official Microsoft license vendor and reboot the server.
