Instruct AWS EC2 'User Data' to be invoked on startup (Server 2016+)

When launching Amazon EC2 images 'user-data' (effectively a bootstrapper) is invoked on first launch. However if you create a custom AMI from one of these images you'll need to run the following to ensure user data is invoked (as the task that invokes it gets disabled prior) with:

C:\ProgramData\Amazon\EC2-Windows\Launch\Scripts\InitializeInstance.ps1 –Schedule

Shutdown the instance and then create AMI again.
