      Brilliant tutorial as usual .. one small thing, when creating a new shortcut in PS you need to HOLD Down the Ctrl Key while adding the other elements. Been driving me crazy until the nice man at Adobe sorted it out.

    I used Wacom Intuos PRO M and S on both Mac and Win platforms at work. Their drivers were getting me really mad. I really hate when I press those side buttons on the tablet and pop ups kept showing NO MATTER IF I TURNED THEM OFF OR NOT. So yeah, pain in the a... So after frequent driver reinstalling I gave up.
    Checkbox Show Express View lived its own life. Especially when I disabled every key, so the round wheel still showed pop ups even if disabled.
    Good job for the video! For some it will be usefull for sure!

    2:15: A great illustration of wired v. wireless lag for me was watching streaming video in VR. In a program like Hulu or Netflix, the program has this big, beautiful widescreen TV in a virtual space, but when you watch a movie with the headphones connected via Bluetooth, the words are always WAY out of sync with the lips of the characters onscreen! Plug in the headphones, however, and everything is spot on. It's a REALLY easy way to see the difference in latency!

    Because windows 10 has omitted the ability to get into group preferences, I had to do this to disable Ink:
    Disable Windows Ink Workspace in Windows 10 Using Registry Tweak
    -
    Press Windows Key + R to open the Run command
    From the run utility window, type Regedit and click Ok to open the registry.
    Next, navigate to the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft
    If you can't locate the WindowsInkWorkspace folder, then do the following:
    -Right-click the Microsoft key in the left pane, and then select New -> Key.
    -Name the Key as WindowsInkWorkspace and click OK.
    Right-click empty space in the right pane, select New -> DWORD (32-bit) Value.
    Name the DWORD value as AllowWindowsInkWorkspace. Leave its value data as 0.
    Restart your computer. Once signed back in, you should see Windows Ink Workspace disabled.
    I also couldn't get to the Wacom Tablet Preference File Utility, but there is a spot to set your backup settings in the Wacom Desktop Center ---> Backup settings ----> Backup. Hopefully I never have to use this, but if I do - I'm hoping it works!!
