Thank you for taking the time to help so many frustrated artists even when you didn't have this problem in the first place. I loved how your video is simple, clear AND SHORT! Thank you,Sir!
MAN!!!! I just can't emphasize enough how much you just saved my SANITY! I had been struggling with that issue since the very dawn of times and now you come and solve it like it's nothing. You are going to heaven, my friend, you really are.
I did not have this problem; however, I was experiencing issues with "cursor lag"--a huge gap (delay) between the cursor and the pixels being rendered on-screen as I was drawing. Decided to give this a try, for kicks 'n' giggles, and it reduced the lag time considerably. Thanks!
I have similar pain with 2020 HP Spectre + HP Pen + Photoshop, Photoshop shows where pen is but doesn't register pressure or drawing on screen, only photoshop mind... other applications work fine...
Omg bless your heart - I just built a new computer two days ago, and I've been spewing trying to figure out why my photoshop on my old laptop had pressure sensitivity but my newly built comp didn't. Thank you thank you! Subbed!
As of August 10th, 2022 - This solution still works and solves the issue. Before this fix, I had to pick between seeing my paint cursor in Photoshop, or Pen Pressure. This lets you do both. Thank you for making this tutorial short, sweet and straight to the point. Fastest subscribe button I have ever pressed.
All other videos that promissed to solve my problem (and did not) worth nothing for me, now. This one, really solved my random, often and anoying photoshop freezing. You saved me! Thank you!
Microsoft doesn't really have a track record of having a high amount of foresight. While it seems likely, it's just as plausible that it's chalked up to plain old idiocy. I only use them because I kinda have to... but back in my web design days I hated them just as much... web projects would take twice as long just to fix the glitches that internet explorer caused.
I was just having this problem myself and it dove me up the walls since i have a project deadline. I didn't know what to do, but then i found your video and it helped me solve the problem. Thank you! Thank you so so much!
Totally worked, thank you! Also a shortcut to getting to your AppData\Roaming folder is to just open any folder and type %appdata% into the bar at the top.
here in 2022 and still works!!! since switching to PC this has been the most annoying thing ever!! put up with it for a year before finding this. Thank you soooooo much! absolute life saver. liked and subscribed. Thanks Aaron!
If you've updated Photoshop to a newer version, you'll need to reapply this fix EVERY TIME. Just copy and paste the PSUserConfig.exe file into the new Photoshop directory.
I have Windows Ink on, but I don't have any of the panning issues like others do, it seems like I'm able to work just fine with Windows Ink turned on, will there be any other side effects to look out for?
Its quite fun, ive got a new computer and i looked up how to disable windows ink and i saw this comment from my past self. FOR FISH`S SAKE, i hate Windows Ink
This *does not* only work for Wacom. It also does work for Huion. Thank you so much! You just made my life so much easier. I do not understand why Adobe doesn't fix this themselfes and instead wants the user to find a work around.
Thanks for saving my wallet and sanity! As a student who has to use photoshop and a tablet for school and projects, problems like this aren't really helping. I'm glad you explained everything so easy to follow. Thanks a bunch!
I'm in the middle of exam work and recently switched to Photoshop 2020 from CS6 (which didn't have this problem somehow). This problem was driving me crazy. You quite literally saved my life
HALLELUJAH!!! It worked! The problem I had was different. With Windows Ink on, every time my pen got close to the tablet to work, I would get a spinning, thinking icon and I couldn't move the cursor. It did it when using healing brush, trying to adjust a slider, etc... Only way to move it was to move the pen back and forth very fast several times but you could imagine the problems doing that when using a healing brush or clone stamp. If I turned off Window Ink, then like you, had no pen pressure which you might as well just use the mouse....which I was doing until I found this. And after 8 years of using a pen, going back to a mouse was a nightmare. Alright work projects, time to make up some ground on all the lost time! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude, you have no idea how much pain I've gone through to fix this whole photoshop/windows ink bs. Now it finally, finally works and I just want to thank you.
Hi, it didn't work for me at first, then i realized the file name was saved automatically with the .txt ending. Make sure you erase it so the file name will be only PSUserConfig - No ending, no problem.
Eatherai .I oh really? Maybe i will try again.. Should i uninstall my pen tab or not? 😮 because xp pen can connect everywhere without install driver on that pc/laptop so i don't know how to uninstall ,because i got information that there was step where i must uninstall pen tab so i little bit confused 🙁
I was panicking so much because I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with my tablet, but this actually worked!! so happy :) thank you so much for this!
IT Support guy on payroll here. Can confirm this works with PS 2020. My user's problems weren't exactly the one shown here (her pen pressure feature deactivated at random intervals), yet the fix still worked fine. Thanks for making my job easier!
Amazing tip, I just bought my Wacom Intuos Pro Small for photography retouching as I start learning photography. I discovered that my Wacom Pen Pro 2 is lagging in Lr as I was adviced to switch on Windows Ink option to get pen pressure in PS CC 2020. It was annoying and I was regretting that I bought this tablet. Finally I found your solution . Once again - AMAZING, thank you :)
This also fixed the issue where you click and hold on a tool bar icon hoping to see the other tools in that set but instead you get a stupid ring that spins around your cursor doing nothing. Thank you!
I just ran into an issue recently with Photoshop on Windows where I'd have to turn off the Windows Ink to be able to use the hotkeys that allow me to change the Size and Hardness of brushes I was using while illustrating. This "hack" pretty much solved the problem! Thanks!
BRO, THANK YOU. This also works if you have other tablets such as Xp Pen. I was dealing with this BS for WEEKS! and it just kept getting worse. THANK YOUUUUUU
this way of disabling windows ink worked wonders. the problem mentioned in the video wasn't one i've had, but i would have unintentional hard brush strokes made whenever i sketched. i also would get a white circle icon surrounding my cursor if i try to make a tiny stroke. frustrating to me, i really thought i had to reinstall something to get this fixed since just turning off the workspace in config settings didn't work. thank you so much for this video!
Works for me. I had freeze / lag issues in photoshop while using my Intuos pro tablet. When I tried to use ctrl+z to undo, photoshop was always freezing. Had to alt+tab to stop freeze... Photoshop was also freezing randomly while drawing... Remove the windows Ink saved me. You know the windows Ink is disabled in your photoshop when you press for example "Alt" or "ctrl" and you don't have the little tooltip under the cursor showing the button you are pressing. If you have the tooltip, Windows Ink is still here.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I gave up on drawing for several days because I didn't know what was going on. You're video was the easiest to understand and it worked! Thanks again!
I just updated my Windows 10 Pro to the latest version & Wacom Driver for the tablet & everything went south from there my pen cursor was totally invisible, mouse was OK but the pen was playing hide and seek. You video put everything back to normal, Thank You you are the best.
It is still working for the 2020 Version! I use a Huion Kamvas 13pro and I had the problem that sometimes my pressure sesitivity didn't work. Thanks a lot for this video Sir!
I was having with this problem with my xp tablet. I had no pressure and none of the shortcut keys worked. So I turn on Windows ink and suddenly I can't even click on anything in Photoshop; completely unresponsive. This fixed it! Now everything works! THANKS
Hi, i have pen tablet newly installed but my problem is that in clip studio the moment the pen touches the active area it waill automatically draw single click only. But when using Photoshop, i had to double press the pen to the active area just to draw a line. Because 1 touch only makes a period, it doenst draw a line. I can i fix that. Thank you
My issue wasn't the horizontal panning, but using alt as a color picker has been hellish. I think it's the "press-and-hold" thin Windows Ink does that caused it to be near impossible to work efficiently, because the goddamn thing wouldn't pick unless I jabbed the tablet multiple times. This solved that for me, bless this vid
Have Huion tablet and experienced nasty bug when photoshop (or, should I say - windows ink?) connected the lines with no pen pressure if drawing too fast. Solution from this video fixed the issue. Thank you for posting it!
Omg I can't believe this issue still exists. The solution was so simple and solved actually a couple of problems that I actually thought were unrelated. Thank you very much!
Woah, I didn't know we can do this! Thank you so much for this. The most frustrating thing that happens with me is when I have Windows photos app minimized and I'm using photoshop, there's no pressure senstivity! This solved that problem, Windows Ink was the culprit in my case!
Thanks for this. Just bought a Wacom Intuos Pro Medium (my first pen tablet) and couldn't get pressure sensitivity to work. With your "hack" it's working like a charm! Thanks again!
ohh my godd!!!! this helped me so much, its working so well now. thanks a lot. the performance of the pen has reduced a little, but thats nothing compared to that immense lag earlier. still got good pen pressure sensitivity
Thank you! Resolved an issue in my Windows Image Viewer. When I used the Wacon pen to change images or use the right-click function in the Viewer, I opened up editing options. It was chaos! I didn't find anything anywhere to correct that. Now I found your video to fix Photoshop and fixed the other bug. Thank you very much! Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! D: Just got a Huion tablet and it just wasn't picking up small strokes and turn out to be freaking windows ink. I was about to return the product and everything you save me thank you!
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH I have tried like 15+ things and this is the only thing that worked. I also couldn't find the checkbox to turn off windows ink because no one ever said it was under calibrate... I had these super annoying circles popping up when I would hold down for even a second, which would make drawing in small details and changing the color extremely difficult. I am so happy and relieved ;_; Just subbed and liked bc I am so thankful lol
So helpful!! I've been wracking my brain with a different issue, I'd get this bunch of pixels lag between a pen stroke, usually okay for drawing but a pain in the butt for moving a slider, even resizing my brush using ALT Right click move up or down. It wouldn't do anything but then register the movement too far so I'd purposefully have to go too far to go back to the lesser number/size. I was so glad I came across the turn turning windows ink option but then noticed no pressure info! Thanks so much for your help.
I don't have this problem... yet. I appreciate how clever you are in these fixes though Aaron and had to take a look! Very cool of you to share these with everyone.

Works for Gaomon too, it was having weird issues where the pressure wasnt picked up correctly.
Bruh it's 2020 and this problem still exists (yes I have my windows up to date), but thank you so much for saving us!!!!!!!

Good to know it still works, I'll give it a try asap!
where do you drop it on photoshop 2020? cause I dont have that folder, settings
@@johanstone youre probably looking at your photoshop files within PROGRAMFILES, you need to go through users>ur name > appdata > adobe ....
@@Domenic367 got it. Thanks!
It's weird after I applied this to photoshop 2020, sometimes the transfer turns off while I'm painting
2021, still had to search for this tutorial and fix my photoshop I pay for every month.
This!
I have similar pain with 2020 HP Spectre + HP Pen + Photoshop, Photoshop shows where pen is but doesn't register pressure or drawing on screen, only photoshop mind... other applications work fine...
Adobe doesn't care about you or your petty problems, they have companies to buy and software to ruin!
pirate it like I do

I had to deal with this yesterday, too... couldn't even work until i fixed it. Microsoft bugs me so much... it's like they had zero forethought
Yeah. It's odd that these preventable conflicts keep happening between Wacom and Microsoft. Seems like sabotage.
but is it surprising, really, seeing as they ARE the microsoft?...
