If you run Jenkins agent as a service, Windows will not give you access to create/control any GUI. You have to start Jenkins agent under normal user, not as a service (maybe using Windows scheduler). Many hints are collected in the Remote Execution Guide. There are many things how to handle RDP or VNC desktop. Please read carefully.

P.S. Also PsExec may hang under Jenkins/Java (known issue, probably not your case), but you can use open-source analogue PAExec with similar options if you need it one day.
