problem with windows ink

Question

hey everyone, as you might know, the most recent windows updates have affected a lot of users including myself

i dont work with a Wacom tablet, but instead, a windows ink computer (HP Pavillion x360 15-br001la), which is still being affected by the same error

so my question is, is there a way to fix it? cause i've seen a lot of things but nothing works for me, it kinda goes like this video, hope there is anyone that can help me

Hello, since then, Microsoft has published a new patch that fixes the previous issue: Cannot paint with stylus when zoomed in on image | Windows 10

The latest Microsoft Windows update (KB4093112) has caused an issue with tablets and Photoshop.

You can either - undo the update

or

Do the following :

1. Use notepad to create a text file and type in :

UseSystemStylus 0

2. Save the file as PSUserConfig.txt in the following location
C: > Users > Username > AppData > Roaming > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 > Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 Settings

3. Go to the tablet properties and uncheck "Use Windows Ink"

4. Restart Photoshop

That is it - all should now work well (you need to do all the above steps to retain pen pressure)

or

There is a third option if the above does not work on your tablet. Microsoft made this change intentionally and they have issued a way round it with registry change (see link below). However for Photoshop and most tablets the PSUserConfig method works.
