I failed to run the sample code for [basic_connect](https://github.com/aws/aws-iot-device-sdk-cpp-v2/tree/main/samples/mqtt/basic_connect). While running it with the following argument: `basic_connect.exe --client_id "ME" --endpoint "*-ats.iot.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com" --cert "<>/MyCertificate.crt" --key "<>/MyPrivate.key" --verbosity "Debug"` i receive the following output: ``` [DEBUG] [2022-09-29T13:02:54Z] [00001648] [mqtt-client] - client=*: Initalizing MQTT client [DEBUG] [2022-09-29T13:02:56Z] [00001648] [tls-handler] - static: This library was built with Windows 8.1 or later, probing OS to see what we're actually running on.

I am using a Windows 11 PC (Lenovo Legion Y540) and have installed NoSQL Workbench v3.3.0 The fonts are not loading properly for me on the app, creating a strain on my eyes & ruining the experience. Here's a screenshot for your reference  I suspect this is due to a font not having been properly installed on my machine. Can you please tell me which font this application uses so that I can go install it & then maybe try rebooting the application and try again ? I have installed all Amazon Developer fonts, Helvetica, Roboto, Sans Serif on my machine & yet they somehow don't seem to be workinglg...

Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a Windows Instance with a single EBS volume (aka root volume) 2. Take a snapshot of the root volume (Snap-1) 3. Create a new EBS snapshot (Snap-2) using `StartSnapshot` API with the Snap-1 as parent snapshot. 4. On Snap-2, issue `CompleteSnapshot` API with 0 changed blocks. 5. Create an AMI using `RegisterImage` API with Snap-2 as the root volume and same block device mapping as the original instance. 6. Any instance created using the AMI has "Linux/UNIX" in Platform Details and does not boot. It was observed that this issue occurs only if the EBS snapshot used is created using `StartSnapshot` API. For example, if Snap-1 was used in the `RegisterImage` call, any instance created using the AMI is showing platform as "windows" and is booting up properly. Question: Is there any way to create a Windows AMI (that creates bootable windows instances) using EBS snapshots created via `StartSnapshot` API or is there any workaround for this ?lg...

I am working on a project which uses VR for architectural visualization, and we are wanting to use AWS EC2 instances with CloudXR to run applications for clients, however, these would need to be remotely started and stopped when the clients are using or not their app. It would be ok to have 1 client per EC2 instance, as each app would be unique, so a manual process of creating and setting up an EC2 instance per client is how I see it working for now, but it couldn't stay running, as they will only be using the app perhaps a few hours a week. I am not sure how to go about this, and I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for so far, so any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Cheerslg...

Dear Experts, We have windows file server in Data Center with approximately 3.5 TB of Data allocated in 4 disks in DC. Windows file server is on server 2012 in Data center. We are doing migration of this file server to AWS using AWS Migration Services(MGN). Business user is not ready to use Windows FSX as the option here therefore we migrating the file server. After migration, the server will be upgraded to 2019 and then the cutover will be done. Do you forsee any issue with migration with such a large amount of data? For replication disks we are using gp3 disk and replication is happening over the internet so replication process is quite slow. However, the query is that after the replication, do you forsee any issue with upgrade and cutover of the instance? Business is expecting to have all file shares permissions should be replicated to the target. Thankslg...
