Hi Jack,
I have reviewed the issue, and from my understanding ,the issue you're experiencing with your Deco 01-V2 tablet seems related to Windows Ink functionality. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve it without reinstalling Windows:
- Update Tablet Driver:
• Visit the XP-Pen Deco 01-V2 website (https://www.xp-pen.com/) and download the latest driver for your tablet. Even if the driver is up to date, consider reinstalling it to reset any potential issues.
- Disable Windows Ink:
• Sometimes, Windows Ink can cause performance problems in specific applications. To disable it:
- Open the XP-Pen Tablet settings.
- Find the option for Windows Ink.
- Uncheck the box to disable it.
• Disabling Windows Ink will stop the tablet from using Windows Ink in supported applications. You can test if this fixes the issue.
- Enable/Disable Pointer Precision:
• Go to Settings > Devices > Mouse.
• Click on Additional mouse options.
• In the Pointer Options tab, toggle the "Enhance pointer precision" setting on or off to see if this affects how your pen interacts with Windows Ink.
- Modify Registry Settings (Advanced):
• If you're comfortable with registry tweaks, you can disable certain Windows Ink features that may be causing the lag.
- Press Win + R, type regedit, and press Enter.
- Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsInkWorkspace.
- Create a new DWORD value called AllowWindowsInkWorkspace and set it to 0 to disable Windows Ink workspace.
- Graphics Settings:
• Check if your tablet is interacting poorly with your GPU:
- Go to Settings > System > Display > Graphics settings.
- Under Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling, try enabling or disabling the feature and see if it improves performance with the tablet.
- Disable Display Scaling:
• Right-click on the problematic application, go to Properties > Compatibility, and select Disable display scaling on high DPI settings. This can sometimes resolve lagging or freezing issues with pen input.
After trying these suggestions, test your tablet in the affected applications.
Please let me know if you need further assistance and keep me updated.
Best regards,
Arvind
