We want to use a 3rd party software on Windows EC2/Cloud Instances, Windows Server 2022. The software requires GUI Interaction. When we close the RDP connection, suddenly our app crashes because of missing UI. Its not a valid option to modify the 3rd party software.

Is there a possibility to start running windows UI rendering without connecting via RDP to that machine before?

Briefly; lets say we started a new Windows instance, without connecting via RDP to that instance, is there a way to start GUI Rendering on that instance? It can be tested with some screenshot scripts, if they work fine without RDP connection on that machine.

As a workaround we do not directly close the RDP connection, instead we are running some scripts which keeps the UI still alive but closes only the RDP session. But with this solution we still need to connect to the machine via RDP first and run this command once.
