Hello,
What you could do is the following:
Setup a new Ubuntu droplet with enough resources
SSH to the new droplet and run:
3389port is open:https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/initial-server-setup-with-ubuntu-18-04
Then you can use any RDP client to connect to your server with your new account.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
