I'm currently running an instance on Ubuntu but I'm wondering if it can be moved to my windows computer?

Windows 10 LTSC (for me) generally has uptime that is the equivalent of any Linux box. I've been using it to host Plex for several years - before hardware transcoding support in Linuxv was really up to snuff.

LTSC is what Windows should be. It's a shame Microsoft doesn't make it available (legally) to normal consumers.
