Hi, I just got a HP Active Pen for my HP Envy 13(not 360) but it is not working. When I bought the laptop I was told that I would need to buy the stylus separately and that it would work perfectly fine but now it's not working. Does anyone have any idea about what could be done next? I have updated all my drivers and all drivers are up to date.

I have done everything. Changed batteries, updated my device drivers manually. HP assistant is already installed. The shopkeeper tells me that my laptop doesn't support active styluses but when I was buying the product, I was informed that it would work. Got scammed!
Also tried to use the same pen on a Surface, worked perfectly fine!

I understand your concerns.
In that case, I would suggets you contact our HP shopping team and check for the compatible pen. They will help you.
Have a nice day!!
