More information was requested, but none was given within 5 weeks. I
also think it sounds likely that this issue is not specific to Emacs,
but rather is a (perhaps fixed?) general problem for Windows on
tablets. I'm therefore closing this bug
If my above assumption is incorrect, and this is still an issue with a
modern version of Emacs, please reopen the bug report.
Best regards,
