Task from task scheduler does not start at start ec2 instance without login – Amazon Web Sevices

I have scheduled EC2 instance to start every morning using Lambda. I have configured some task in task scheduler which I want it to run once EC2 is up however task wont get triggered until I login to EC2 instance. I want my task scheduler runs automatically at defined time without login to EC2 instance. Its a windows instance.

I tried configuring task without login but it doesn’t invoke.

    To run a script every time an Amazon EC2 instance starts, simply add the script to this directory:

    /var/lib/cloud/scripts/per-boot/

    Most Amazon EC2 AMIs have cloud-init installed. It is responsible for running scripts from User Data. It will also check the above directory and run any scripts it finds there. This does not require a user to login.
