What about virtualizing windows?

Only thing I know of is hyperv, but it's not widely used I don't think and MS is pushing azure $tack right?

Hyper-v is definitely wisely used...

Lots of hypervisors support windows. Ie proxmox

To be pedantic - KVM is the hypervisor. Proxmox is a wrapper to it.

Being even more pedantic, KVM is the hypervisor, QEMU is a wrapper around it and Proxmox provides a management interface to it.

Anything based on KVM does great

Just make sure you install the virtio drivers.

I tried virtualizing Windows on proxmox and it went smooth
