Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Desktop for Intel CPU & Critical Updates
Technology Leadership Corporation | Version 1Linux/Unix, Other Windows 10 Pro - 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Machine is booted but instanceId is not being accepted as Administrator password
Can't really use this AMI as I can't log in. I've provided the instanceId as mentioned in the documentation for the Administrator password and it keeps coming back with a logon failure.

Simply doesn't work!
Hello,
First, it's not working. I used a g5.4xlarge instance (16 vCPUs, 64GiB of RAM, massive GPU), after 2.5 hours of waiting, and clicking to get the instance screenshot, it still shows an empty Windows 10 boot screen. No text, no data, no system logs - nothing.
Monitoring with CloudWatch leads to nowhere - CPU usage is constant at 6.5% but no disk usage.
Also, because the maintainer would claim I'm ruining his business - I would love to contact you, but the "Contact Us" link you put gives 404, and trying to get support through your website leads to no answer on the contact us email (I waited 48 hours!).
So yeah, it's not working. Stay clear of this!
For the maintainer - I'm not jeopardizing your business. I'm a business owner myself, but when a customer tries to reach me, I don't take 48 hours to answer for support email, especially when it's a paying customer.
If I were to depend on your AMI - my business would be ruined. Good thing I just wanted to make a POC.
How to increase the C Drive Space
Hello,
This works really good for me. But it seems I'm unable to increase the C drive space even though I added 80GB when provisioning the EC2. Problem is there is a recovery partition in between the C drive and the unallocated space in the disk management console. Is there a way to easily increase the C drive space ?
Thank you
Cannot connect.
I have used t2Large with 256GB storage to create the instance. It can get in running status. But I cannot connect it by using Microsoft remote desktop with Administrator and instance ID as password. The return code is 0x516. I try to change the security group's 3389 port to my IP. But it still not work.
kinda good i guess
its really slow but useable for other stuff, i dont really recommend this for gaming. i just use this sometimes for creating virtualbox vm's
Difficult to connect instance but works
Writing this review because I struggled for almost a day to connect to my windows 10 instance after launching.
For me, I was not able to download RDP file because there was no tab for me in 'Connect' called as 'RDP Client'
What I followed to connect to my instance
1. Downloaded Microsoft Remote Desktop app from App Store. ( I am using MAC)
2. In Add PC, entered public IP of the VM available in ec2 dashboard.
3. Username: Administrator
4. Password: Instance ID
You should be able to access the VM now.
Status verification fails - RDP connection does not work
I tried twice launch this AMI, in both cases I could not get Windows password in
EC2 Instances/Connect/Get Windows password and in both cases I could not connect using windows RDP . I quit.
WORKS!!!!
I already tested this windows 10 pro vps and it works for the guys that they dont know how to connect it does with the program Remote Desktop Protocol
the username its Administrator
and the pass its your instance id
the only trouble i have its the space, ofc 32GB i haved to deleted that instance and create another with another disk of 200GB, its all, Enjoy!
Dead for me too
Fails availability checks no matter how long you leave it on for, impossible to connect to via ssh/console for diagnostics and screenshot shows 'no internet', so not a lot of use really...
Working fine here
Can confirm with the other reviewer that this is working fine in our environment. Full Windows 10 desktop and everything is working as I'd hope over SSH and RDP connections.
