Default EC2 login credentials location

Question

I created an EC2 instance via Windows long ago. I don't remember where the login creds are for ssh via git bash on windows. I know I would have used the whatever the default locations are. But I don't even know where those are. Amazon "support" is useless.

Answer

You can try using Session Manager to obtain a browser shell access to change  your administrator password.

Try the steps listed at [Connect to your Linux instance using Session Manager](https://catalog.workshops.aws/general-immersionday/en-US/basic-modules/10-ec2/ec2-linux/3-ec2-1) or [Connect to your Windows instance using Session Manager](https://catalog.workshops.aws/general-immersionday/en-US/basic-modules/10-ec2/ec2-windows/3-ec2-1) for Linux or Windows respectively.

Restart your EC2 instance if you are unable to connect via Session Manager. 
Once you obtained shell access, reset password by running the command `net user administrator ` or `sudo passwd ec2-user` for Windows or Linux respectively.
