, First, you will need to purchase copies of Windows Server, Windows 10, and Exchange Server and
obtain license keys for all of them. You can purchase these from the Microsoft website or from a
licensed retailer.
Next, you will need to purchase hardware that meets the minimum requirements for running each of
these products. The hardware requirements for Windows Server and Windows 10 can be found in
the Microsoft documentation. Exchange Server has its own set of hardware requirements, which you
can also find in the documentation.
Once you have the necessary hardware, you can begin the installation process for Windows Server.
Start by inserting the Windows Server installation media (e.g. a DVD or USB drive) into your server
and booting from it.
The installation process will begin with a language selection screen. Choose the language that you
want to use during the installation process and click "Next".
On the next screen, you will be asked to accept the terms of the license agreement. Check the box
next to "I accept the license terms" and click "Next".
You will now be presented with a few installation options. Select "Custom: Install Windows only
(advanced)" and click "Next".
The next screen will show you a list of available drives. Choose the drive where you want to install
Windows Server and click "Next".
The installation process will now begin. This will take some time, so be patient.
Once the installation is complete, you will be prompted to create a local user account. Enter your
desired username and password, and click "Next".
The final screen will display a summary of the installation process. Click "Finish" to complete the
installation.
Your Windows Server is now installed and ready to use.
The next step is to install Windows 10 on the client machine. Insert the Windows 10 installation
media into the client machine and boot from it.
Follow the prompts to accept the license terms and choose the installation options. You will have the
option to customize the installation, such as selecting the location for the installation files and
creating a local user account.
Once the installation is complete, you will be prompted to log in to the client machine using the user
account that you created.
Now that you have Windows Server and a Windows 10 client set up, you can install Exchange Server
on the server. Insert the Exchange Server installation media into the server and run the setup
program.
Follow the prompts to accept the license terms and choose the installation options. You will have the
option to install the Exchange Management Console, which is a graphical user interface for managing
Exchange Server. It is recommended to install this.
