  • Wacom vs. 3DS Max

    hi

    Windows 7 causes a problem with Max 2010 and 2011 and a Wacom tablet. You need to disable (by renaming) the file "C:\windows\system32\wisptis.exe." But the first time you do it you need to set the permissions:

    1. Navigate to C:\windows\system32\wisptis.exe
    2. Right click and go to Security..click Advanced
    3. Go to the Owner tab
    4. Click Edit
    5. Add your login as a new user
    6. Take ownership of the file.
    7. Click “Change permissions”
    8. Add your login account if you don’t see it.
    9. Then edit the setting for the account and give your self full control.
    10. Now you need to rename the wisptis.exe to something else and replace it with a empty text file of the same name.
    11. Now when Windows call this file nothing happens and because the file is there it is not restored.

    Unfortunately, doing this will also disable Microsoft Silverlight, which is what Netflix and other things use to stream movies. So I made a couple .bat files to rename it when I need to:

    One for Max: ren C:\windows\system32\wisptis.exe wisptis.bak
    And one for Netflix: ren C:\windows\system32\wisptis.bak wisptis.exe
