Yes, MATLAB is installed and running on Amazon (you can see it on the top of the screenshot). Why? I run MATLAB locally. I started to lean neural network and NN training takes too long (> 2 weeks). So, I bought Parallel Computing Toolbox and would like to run code on Amazon's GPU. GPU costs about $4K what is too much for buying it for non commercial project. Rent on Amazon for this task is about $30 what is ok for me.

Looks like you might be using Windows Remote Desktop, is that right? Try using an alternative remote desktop tool like UltraVNC or NoMachine NXClient and you will probably find it works fine.
If this is the problem then it can also be circumvented by enabling TCC mode on the server. You may need admin priviledges.
