A few days ago, The Register in the UK reported a Tablet PC bug that appears as a memory leak. Unfortunately, the bug is allegedly in one of the most prevalent processes of the Tablet PC OS: Tabtip.exe which is the process that handles handwriting recognition:
“The program Tabtip.exe increases in size due to a memory leak. It starts out at approximately 10MB. I have seen it zoom up to over 150MB after a couple of weeks of suspend/resume.” Tabtip.exe is quite an important application - it’s the built-in ink digitizer responsible for handwriting recognition. Without it, you must buy and install a third-party recognition software, or plug in a keyboard.”
Today I received some Q & A on the subject from the Microsoft Tablet PC Partner program. It appears that the bug is acknowledged; click to “Read More”.
