No pen pressure in 26.2

Hello, after a friend told me their pen pressure is no longer working in Photoshop 26.2 I have experimentally upgraded as well (from 25.12.01) and am experiencing the same issue. I don't think it even registers that I'm using a pen, because the brush previews also show no pressue.

I have WinInk turned off and suspect this is the issue. Is Adobee dropping support for WinTab? I see nothing about this in the release notes!

Hello everyone!

I use the same setting to enable WinTap pressure sensitivity from my Wacom tablet in Photoshop. This has worked perfectly until now.

However, after updating to Photoshop 27.4, the program freezes immediately whenever I make a brush stroke.

My question is – are any of you experiencing something similar?
