Question

How do I turn off pressure sensitivity?

My steps: 
I created a new Brush Preset, and then in the Brush Settings in the Shape Dynamics window, I tried to turn off Pen Pressure for this brush. But as soon as I start drawing, it instantly reverses back by itself. If I uncheck Shape Dynamics, it also reverses back as soon as the pen touches the tablet. How do I stop it from reversing? There is no 'save settings' button.
I tried to create presets based on Hard round and Hard round pressure size brushes.

If @Trevor.Dennis ’s post hasn’t solved the problem already could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, Brush Settings, …) visible?

Look at the Brushes Panel. 

What are the settings in the Options Bar
