I am facing issue in loading a tree view control (comctl32.ocx) in "Windows Server 2012 R2" machine. Here Treeview style used is "tvwpictureText".

When I googled for a solution. I have found the solution saying: if you disable the service "Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service". the control will load.

The treeview control(comctl32.ocx) is not loading properly when service is enabled.

if I disabled this service and restart the machine then the treeview control (comctl32.ocx) is loading properly.

If I use mscomctl.ocx, treeview is loading properly irrespective of service enabled/disable in Windows Server 2012 R2 machine. But I cant use mscomctl.ocx for development because all projects are built with comctl32.ocx.

Here I want to know why this service is causing the problem to load treeview control of comctl32.ocx. Is there any alternative for this issue?
