Does anyone still have the CalibG4.exe touch screen dead zone hotfix file for the Surface Pro 3 they could share with me? I've seen posts to the Sony support website where you used to be able to download it from, but it no longer seems active. So I've no idea how to obtain it.

EDIT: 

Found it. It says Windows 8, but I used it on my Windows 10 and worked like a charm.

If this link ever dies in the future, let me know (jestercat at out) because I'm going to save the file.

    I had a Sony PS3 (decided wisely to buy it instead of Microsoft's X-Box), bought it in 2001. It lasted 6 years until I bought my PS4 gaming machine in 2007. I've now had it 12 years and still going strong, not a single issue.

    Microsoft puts out a defective product with a WELL KNOWN hardware issue, and then they refuse to do anything about it. Put up a link to a hotfix that isn't really there, then they give you runaround if you contact customer service and say the only way they can "solve" your problem is by giving them ANOTHER $450?!! WHO THE ***profanity remoed***  DO THESE PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE??!!!

    I bought the SP4 at a time when it was really the only quality pen-touch screen around. It isn't any more. Companies like Lenovo and Sony and Acer have been catching up. I will take my business elsewhere if this is the contempt by which they treat their customers!
