You have a Linux server with Ubuntu 20.04 and need Windows for specific applications. You're using Wine for Windows on Ubuntu but lose access after reboots. You're looking for a solution to keep VNC available automatically during Windows installation. There are options like adding a custom install script or using tools that bundle VNC into the Windows setup, though this may require some technical setup.

We won’t be setting up an operating system entirely off-site (besides virtual machines), particularly not for Windows. Sure, you might try installing it on a local machine and copying the drive over, but true remote installation isn’t feasible as far as I understand.

Create an unattend.xml file for your Windows setup and automate the VNC installation process. If possible, run the script to connect via RDP once the window is active.
