    Need Help with Surface Pen


    Hello,

    I have a Surface Book 2 and just bought a MS Surface Pen.

    I have successfully connected it via Bluetooth to the PC, and have been able to launch apps via one click or double click just fine.

    However, when I switch to tablet mode, or undock my screen and re-dock it facing the other way, the computer looses connectivity to the pen.

    Only when I remove the pen in the bluetooth settings and re-ad it while in either of the above configurations, does it regain connectivity and full functionality.

    Switching back to normal PC configuration mode (non tablet mode, screen facing me), breaks connectivity once again. I must again, remove the pen and add it again to get it to reconnect.

    The pen is the newest model - it is model M 1776 SC

    :)

    Surface Pro 4 Pen will not write on screen


    Try the tips from Microsoft Support at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...ft-surface-pen. In my case when this happened, I needed to replace the single AAAA battery inside my Pen. Perhaps you might find some of these suggestions helpful.
