Terminal Services doesn’t work how you would expect it to. It logs on
as an additional user, and not as the user that’s physically on the
machine.

You could try changing the mode you run Terminal Services in, but I
doubt this would solve the problem. You could always use VNC or some
other remote control software instead which would do what you want it
to do.
