The difference between the two is that Windows VPS is a server that has a Windows Operating System in it while the Linux VPS is a server that has a Linux Operating System. The advantage of Windows VPS is that it has familiar features that a user can easily adapt and control. A user can also run higher-traffic websites, download or customize their applications that shared hosting cannot provide. The disadvantage is that price wise it is costly because of license fees.
Linux VPS' advantage is that it is an open source that a user can obtain its software for free but the disadvantage is that the user interface is hard to familiarize and control for a first time user.
