Microsoft TS - Start Program on another session

Hi!

Is it possible for me as an administrator to start for example "notepad.exe" inside another users terminal server session so that it shows on the users screen?

Cheers!

Follow these setup instructions. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771538.aspx

Thanks BlueYonder, but I think I was a bit unclear.

I want to start it from my own command prompt without having to log on or remote controlling the users session.

My bad!

Thank you very much for the idea about task schedule!

The task is to say - open TeamViewer automatically when the user needs help, or to run an inventory tool on the users account.

I have no straight idea about it - I am working with developement so this was sort of a first step to see if there was any idea of even trying :-)

I will test the task scheduler and get back to you!

Mind what I wrote about psexec. A TS is not used at session 0.

I found that it is indeed possible to start a program on another users session when being the domain administrator and not loading the administrator user profile.
