Things are not trivial and different steps requires googling and trying things as the task is not a common one
1. Running on windows EC2 image (rather than linux)
2. Run task on instance startup (thather than at log in time)
- I expected this to be one of the mainstream tasks, but still found it hard to find "How to" about it
3. Automatically running instaces of an image
That should've been trivial, but AWS web interfaces has changed so old doc was misleading
Took me long time and some help to find to which cert they refer and how to match it to private key, to which one ... (this is behind me now)

4. S3 automation - currently using CloudBerry Explorer for Amazon
Boot task:
1. Task should run automatically w/o user logon
I used service for that, but I hope there is a simpler way, even though this is currently working for me.

Next thing is an S3 boot strapper ...
