Closed Remote Desktop on Windows Server by Mistake, Unable to Access Remotely "lightsail"

0

I accidentally disabled Remote Desktop on my Windows Server, and now I'm unable to access the server remotely through RDP. What are the steps I can follow to regain access or re-enable Remote Desktop on the server? Any advice or solutions for this issue would be greatly appreciated. I'm using AWS lightsail with a Windows Server instance.

Hello.

How about setting the launch script to run the following command when creating a Lightsail snapshot and restoring an instance from the snapshot?
The following command is the command to disable Windows Firewall.

<powershell>
Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain,Public,Private -Enabled False
</powershell>
