New to the Wacom Intuos Pro tablet and in one of the YT videos I watched it said to turn off the INK feature in Windows10.

In the original video showing the Wacom Tablet Properties pop up it showed a small checkbox where you could turn the INK feature on and off. The latest version of the Intuos Pro software doesn't show this small checkbox. Can anyone advise if the INK feature still needs to be turned off? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Historically, the INK checkbox was under the 'mapping' page in the Wacom properties applet ...

Thanks Droj, it's still there, did you add it while I wasn't looking? I must have looked on that page a dozen times. Something tells me I need to book in urgently with Specsavers.

With another Intuos product & W10, I also found that INK would interfere with pen operation in apps other than PS, so I have it turned off completely. Was a b****r initially, since I'd never heard of INK and assumed that my tablet must be faulty.

Another 'trick' that might or might not be necessary is to write the following as a txt file:

# Use WinTab

UseSystemStylus 0

and save it with the name 'PSUserConfig.txt' to the folder

C:\Users\'you'\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop xx\Adobe Photoshop xx Settings

But I don't want to complicate things unnecessarily, and AppData folders can be inaccessible by default ... ;)
 
Thanks for the help Droj, really appreciated.
