Tablet PC Input Service

The Tablet PC Input Service (TabletInputService) enables Tablet PC pen-and-ink functionality. This allows any edition of Windows 7 to be installed on a Tablet PC. It also allows users to use an external pen and touch input device.

If the computer does not have tablet functionality or an external pen and touch input device, you should consider disabling this service.

This service is installed by default and its startup type is Manual.

When the Tablet PC Input Service is started in its default configuration, it logs on by using the Local Service account.

The Tablet PC Input Service is dependent upon the following system components:

  • Plug and Play
  • Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
  • DCOM Server Process Launcher
  • RPC Endpoint Mapper
