Development and release
[
edit
]
Windows Server 2019 was announced on March 20, 2018, and the first
Windows Insider
preview version was released on the same day.
[5]
It was released for general availability on October 2 of the same year.
[1]
On October 6, 2018, distribution of Windows 10 version 1809 (build 17763
[6]
) was paused while Microsoft investigated an issue with user data being deleted during an in-place upgrade.
[7]
It affected systems where a user profile folder (e.g. Documents, Music or Pictures) had been moved to another location, but data was left in the original location.
[8]
As Windows Server 2019 is based on the Windows version 1809 codebase, it too was removed from distribution at the time,
[9]
but was re-released on November 13, 2018.
[10]
The
software product life cycle
for Server 2019 was reset in accordance with the new release date.

Web browser
[
edit
]
Microsoft Edge
did not support Server 2019 at release. Microsoft considers
Internet Explorer 11
a "compatibility layer," not a browser. Edge added support in January 2020, but Server 2019 does not install it by default. Microsoft encourages server and enterprise users to install Edge.
