Photoshop CC 2019 (20.0) Wacom pressure not working

Wacom pressure sensitivity does not work with the new version of Photoshop CC 2019 (20.0).
I've tried restarting PC, reinstalling Wacom drivers, installing latest Windows 10 updates, playing with various PS settings - nothing seems to work.
I have Wacom Cintiq 27QHD.
Previous Photoshop version still works as expected (with pressure ect.) But the new CC 2019 does not recognize the pressure (or tilt) of the stylus.

Any ideas, aside from waiting for driver/PS update?

Hi

Create a text file called "PSUserCong.txt , add the text below and drop it into your "Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 Settings" folder, restart photoshop and you'll have the pressure sensitivity back. I already had the file in my previous install, so just copied it across.

This worked for me on PS 2020, making PS reognize sensitivity(it recognized the Intuos tablet and pen, just not the sensitivity). Also, notice the typo in the name of the TXT file: "config"

Hi,

the txt file works for photoshop in my case, but i have the same problem in lightroom.

I can enable Windows Ink, then the pressure works (irratic and not smooth at all), but I cannot control the sliders anymore and rightclicking is horribly broken. In Photoshop eanbling windows ink also leads to very unreliable pen behaviour.

Is this an issue that only a few of us are facing or is this just the way it is? I am surprised that this issue seems to be unfixed for years and i see so many great reviews on the wacom tablets, it seems to work for other people.
