Windows service applications do not have consoles so have no access to input or output devices.

[Richard Deeming]

Windows services don't run in the context of a user's desktop. At any point whilst the service is running, there could be zero, one, or many users logged in to the computer, each with their own desktop. You need to use a different solution. For example, you can use the Windows Task Scheduler to start an application when any user logs in. That application will have access to the user's desktop.
