    Hi,

    Thank you for your timely response, we hope your doing well.

    We've been checking possible case related to this Flicks option online but we were not able to specifically locate one.

    However, there are few users who's having the same problem as this but was fixed by turning off the Press and Hold Settings.

    Kindly try to do it this time instead and see if there is some changes.

    If your Windows 10 device has a pen or another type of stylus, you can customize what your pen does and how it works with your PC.

    If you find yourself bumping the screen while using your pen, you may want to turn on the Ignore touch input when I’m using my pen setting to avoid potential issues.

    We look forward hearing from you soon!

    Sincerely,

    Hi Leonardo_Y,

    Yes, I located the screenshot I provided under Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Pen and Touch.
    I tried all the steps provided and the flick tab still won't pop up.

    Sincerely,
