Services run in session 0, which does not have access to the desktop of the current user. That means that you can't useGetDesktopWindow
, because you don't have access to it, which means thatGetWindowDC
does not return a valid DC. Therefore, there is no screen to capture, which explains your results. See stackoverflow.com/q/18891819/62576
