QUESTION
I am attempting to spin up an ec2 instance using AWS CDK, for the most part it works great but I want the userData to persist so it runs on each boot... Annoyingly this is not documented (anywhere I can find) and I just cant figure out where/how to define it. Below is my code that works but because the userdata is by forWindows()
I cannot just add xxx.addCommands('true')
because the forWindows() puts the code in tags...

// Instance details
const ssmaUserData = UserData.forWindows()
const userDataScript = ''+ '\n' +'true';
const ec2Instance = new ec2.Instance(this, 'SdkInstance', {
vpc,
instanceType: ec2.InstanceType.of(ec2.InstanceClass.T3, ec2.InstanceSize.NANO),
machineImage: awsAMI,
securityGroup: mySecurityGroup,
vpcSubnets: {subnetType: ec2.SubnetType.PUBLIC},
keyName: "EC2Connect",
userData: Fn.base64(userDataScript)
});
