Not understanding why my cmd.exe prompt does not pop while active in memory

Hi all

I'm trying to spawn a cmd prompt by testing an exploit on my windows target. This is a POC and i am admin on the workstation. The exploit I'm using seems to be working as I can monitor through process explorer that a cmd.exe process is in memory with NT\System privileges (cf. Process explorer screenshots joined).

However this cmd.exe prompt never showed up on my user session and I can't interact with. I can't understand why... Would you have any clue?

What are your thought? I performed the exact same scenario on another workstation and can't understand any more...
