Description

Hello,

Is anyone having trouble with starting Windows EC2 from the toolkit? It started and immediately go to stop. I have EC2-admin and am able to start an Amazon Linux EC2 but not Windows. Very weird!

Thanks
Hao

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows EC2 start attempt from the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio and compare it with the working Amazon Linux start. Check the reported EC2-admin permissions and capture why the Windows instance immediately stops; done means identifying the cause and confirming that a Windows EC2 instance starts successfully.
