Yes, but there installs automatically.

Why do you want windows in the cloud anyway?

@thecreativeone91 I just think it would be cool to have a hosted desktop.

Linux can do that too.

CloudatCost offers that too.... but ALL of the legal issues are with you, not with them. That they make it work does nothing for the fact that your license isn't valid if used that way.

You can get that from Amazon. What you are looking for is hosted VDI and it is quite expensive. The big cost comes from MS licensing and there is no way around that high cost.
