I'm new to backend operations and server management, and I'm having a tough time setting up the AWS CLI. I need to run a command that will replace all the files and folders in a specific AWS S3 bucket with whatever is in my local directory. The bucket is hosted by someone else, and I can access it with my IAM user account. The documentation has been really confusing, and it's led to tons of questions without clear answers. I've tried locating my credentials, but none of the methods seem to work. I'm using Windows 10, and I would appreciate any guidance on how to get this set up properly.

Before running commands, make sure you have your IAM user credentials, which include an access key ID and a secret access key. If you have those, run `aws configure` to set them up according to the instructions in the AWS documentation. If you need help finding your credentials, let me know!
Just to throw it out there, if you're struggling with the CLI, consider whether a GUI solution might be easier for you. Dragging and dropping in the AWS console can be a lot simpler if command line operations are proving tricky. You can check the AWS docs for more info on the CLI if you still prefer that route!
To copy everything from your local folder to the S3 bucket, you just need to make sure you have the right permissions set up. You can use this command: `aws s3 cp . s3://your-bucket-name/ --recursive`. This will replicate all the contents from your local directory to the specified S3 bucket.
