Please provide clear instructions. Also instructions how I can extract the image so I can run it from a local machine can help.

Thanks.

Please follow the VMExport process https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vm-import/latest/userguide/vmexport.html or export an AMI https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vm-import/latest/userguide/vmexport_image.html

    I have already tried a few times, in my opinion it's not written clearly and missing information.

    I recommend asking clarifying questions where you are confused and run into issues.

    I have an EBS snapshot of the ec2 machine. I don't know if it can work with it?

    aws ec2 export-image --image-id snap-0f54423ccc74de06b --disk-image-format VHD --s3-export-location S3Bucket=my-export-bucket,S3Prefix=exports/

    An error occurred (InvalidParameter) when calling the ExportImage operation: The image ID (snap-0f54423ccc74de06b) provided is invalid. Please make sure the ID is correct.
