I think one reason I keep getting off track, is that I don't get the second bullet "Run from Agent command line", as shown in your screen shot.
All I get is the "Launch" button and I keep trying to make that work. With no luck so far. AWS linux for Jenkins master AWS Windows server 2012 for node The steps I am following: - Configured a Jenkins master - Add an agent through the Jenkins master web pages - Open the web page of that agent from the Windows machine where you want to start the agent - Goto node detail page Actually your screen shot shows “Launch” button with a Java icon, while I get a “Launch agent” button. See screen shot. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Asq1qvxIZKE/WeYj1UMxtXI/AAAAAAAAAFo/V-0EjP0jtdAt-HqEu_5daDh-Rw3H_pz6wCLcBGAs/s1600/Launch.PNG> Also on the node overview page, should the instance be listed as Windows (for Architecture)?
