Answer 1

Change the browser to your self-written one, or launch the browser from a remote machine, in Linux this is called x-parting, in windows you can do it via putty or rdp

Answer 2

No way. Let's tell why you need a windows server?

Answer 3

some require the purchase of server licenses

which ones exactly?
The universal way is virtualization, i.e. actually transfer capricious software to another machine, i.e. virtual, putting anything there.
PS, in the properties of the application shortcut, try to select the compatibility tab - the version of the OS you need, very rarely, but it helps.
