# Disable Tablet PC using the FixMyPen tool

The **Fix My Pen** tool solves annoying Tablet PC when using a **Graphics tablet** with **Windows 7.**

### Notes

### What Tablet PC features does it disable?

* Dynamic Feedback “Rings” 
* Pen Flicks
* Press-and-hold delay
* Tablet PC input panel

### Which versions of Windows 7 does it work with?

* Windows 7 Enterprise
* Ultimate
* Home Premium.

### Instructions

* Download **Fix My Pen** from here: <https://github.com/saveenr/Fix_My_Pen/releases>
* Right-click on the **ViziblrFixMyPen.exe** file and select **Run as administrator**.
* When Fix My Pen starts, you will see all the settings are marked “bad”.
