Hi

The latest windows update (KB4093112)  has caused an issue with the Wacom tablet and Photoshop.

You can either - undo the update

or

Do the following:

1. Use notepad to create a text file and type in :

UseSystemStylus 0

2. Save the file as PSUserConfig.txt in the following location 

C: > Users > Username > AppData > Roaming > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 > Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 Settings

3. Go to the Wacom tablet properties and for Photoshop under Mapping  uncheck "Use Windows Ink"

That is it - all should now work well

A work buddy of mine ran into this issue. Turning off "ink and paint" in the wacom driver settings fixed the issue for him.

Not for all though, me (using old bamboo) my college using a cintique, could not get that to work.

i have a different problem with photoshop cs6 and i am not ashamed to use this thread to ask for help !

when i try to switch colors (x) or use some other ui elements, like gradient tools, or square, it takes 1-2 seconds to actually switch the tool
this is driving me nuts, i have up to date drivers and a good system. photoshop is installed on a ssd
the lag only happens if i have a document open and then it doesn't matter how big it is

The PSUserConfig.txt trick is the only one that's reliably worked for me. But I always heard to write it like:

# Use WinTab

UseSystemStylus 0
That's how I've always done it and it works for me.
