# Can I use Windows on a Droplet?

No, you cannot use Windows on a Droplet. We do not provide Windows images for Droplets and do not support Windows [custom images](https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/custom-images/index.html.md).

In our feedback portal, you can [add your support for Windows Droplets](https://ideas.digitalocean.com/core-compute-platform/p/support-windows-server). Additionally, we encourage you to consider using [open source software](https://www.digitalocean.com/open-source/) for your projects.
