How to Create Windows GUI on Amazon EC2 Instance

Step 1: Log in to the AWS Management Console

• Visit AWS Console.
• Sign in with your AWS credentials. If you don't have an account, create one.

Step 2: Launch an EC2 Instance

1. Click “Launch Instance”:
   • In the EC2 Dashboard, click the Launch Instance button.
2. Set a Name for the Instance:
   • Provide a meaningful name for the instance, such as "Windows-Server-Test."
3. Select an Amazon Machine Image (AMI):
   • Choose a Windows AMI: AWS offers pre-configured AMIs for Windows operating systems. For example:
     • Microsoft Windows Server 2025 Base.
     • Microsoft Windows Server 2022 Base.
     • You can choose from AMIs with default Windows installations or AMIs pre-configured with additional software like SQL Server.
4. Choose an Instance Type:
   • Select an appropriate instance type based on your use case. Common types:
     • t2.micro: Free-tier eligible for light usage (basic testing and learning).
     • Larger types like t3.medium or m5.large if you need more CPU, memory, or storage.
   • Click Next or continue configuring.

   • Number of Instances:
     • By default, only one instance will launch. You can specify more if needed.
   • Network Settings:
     • VPC: Ensure the instance is launched using the correct VPC (default or custom).
     • Subnet: Select a subnet where the instance will reside (e.g., availability zone us-east-1a).
     • Auto-assign Public IP: Ensure it can access the instance over the internet.
   • Storage (EBS Volume):
     • Adjust the size of the root volume if needed. The default is usually 30 GB, but you can increase it for applications requiring more storage.
