I turned on pen pressure and tried using my tablet pen but it didn't work

SUMMARY
I have been trying to activate Pen pressure for Krita for a while and it isn't working. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the application, I've tried looking up solutions for the problem but didn't find anything that worked. I tried messing around with the configure krita window and the wintab and windows 8 pen options but nothing had changed.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. 
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Pen pressure doesn't work with tablet pen


EXPECTED RESULT
Pen pressure works with pen and takes into account how hard i am pressing down.

Sorry, but tablet problems are pretty much never bugs in Krita, but always issues with the local setup. This is a bug tracker, where issues with Krita's code that we can fix are tracked, not a user support site. Please consult the manual: https://docs.krita.org/en/user_manual/drawing_tablets.html# or ask for help on the user support site, krita-artists.org.

How is it a Tablet bug if other applications such as photoshop work fine
with pen pressure. I'm sorry but it's either krita is failing to comply
with my tablet or my tablet specifically doesn't like krita like what

Tablet drivers often have per-application code paths. And per-application store data. Krita actually doesn't contain any code that directly interfaces with tablet drivers, that's all handled at a lower level.
