    Pen flicks won't work at all for me after the fall update.

    Hi Brown,

    One possible reason why pen flicks won't work after the update is due to corrupted system files. To assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Are you getting any error messages?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow these steps below on how to properly set flick settings:

    • Press Windows key + x, and select Control Panel.
    • Open Pen and Touch applet.
    • Touch the Flicks tab.
    • Ensure that the Use flicks to perform common actions quickly and easily is checked.
    • Set the Sensitivity slider to the left (Relaxed).
    • Touch Apply and OK.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Missing Flicks Tab

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Follow the steps below to disable flicks.



    • Open control panel by searching on the start menu.
    • Change View type to Small icons.
    • Click on Pen and Touch.
    • Under Flicks tab uncheck
      Use flicks to perform common action quickly and easily
      .


    If you are still not able to find the options, try to update the pen drivers from the manufacturer website.

    If you have a Surface pen, you can try to

    Hope it helps.

    Disable Flicks Gesture in Windows 10.

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    We understand the difficulties you are facing with the Flicks Gesture in Windows on your Edge browser. We appreciate your effort in troubleshooting the issue and thanks for providing us the detail information in the post. To have a clarity on this
    issue, we need some information.

    • What is the Windows version and build installed?
    • What is the make and model of the PC?
    • Do you have the Ink feature enabled in the PC?
    • Are you looking to disable the Flicks Gesture option completely from the PC or just for Microsoft Edge?

    If you are using Ink feature option and you are in
    Windows 10, then we would suggest you to disable the
    Ink feature and check if that helps you to solve the problem.

    However, we would suggest you to change the registry settings for the Flicks Gesture.

    Registry disclaimer: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry
    incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
    How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

    1. Press Windows + R and type
      regedit
      .
    2. Navigate to this location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wisp\Pen\SysEventParameters
    3. Once you click on SysEventParameters and then on Right pane you need to click
      FlickMode and change the Hexadecimal value to
      3
      and click Ok.
    4. Restart the PC and check if you are able to disable it.

    We await your response.
