Lightsail in safe mode

Question

I set Lightsail Windows Instance to boot up in safe mode, forgot the "with networking", now I cannot RDP in, was a mistake. Anyone ever run into this or is there anyway to get in since its not Safe Mode W/networking?

Answer

once a Windows instance in Amazon Lightsail is booted into Safe Mode without networking, you cannot access it via RDP, as the networking components are disabled.

but maybe you can try the following

Create a snapshot of your Lightsail instance
Create a new Amazon EC2 instance
Create an Amazon EBS volume from the Lightsail snapshot
Attach the Amazon EBS volume to the EC2 instance
Access the EC2 instance and modify the boot settings
- change registry settings 
- - Click "File" > "Load Hive" and navigate to the "Windows\System32\config" folder on the attached volume.
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Offline_SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\SafeBoot
- Modify the "Option" value to "2" ( Safe Mode with Networking)

do not know it works but worth to try in your case
