What is inputpersonalization.exe?

Input Personalization Server runs on Tablet PCs running Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8 and the Handwriting Recognizer (also called Handwriting Recognition Personalization Tool or Input Personalization) currently open and you are training your Tablet PC to recognize your handwriting, or you are currently entering free-hand text on your Tablet PC and the Handwriting Recognizer is running in the background automatically converting your handwriting to machine understandable text.

Overview

inputpersonalization.exe executes as a process with the local user's privileges typically within the context of its parent services.exe (Services and Controller app by Microsoft). It is an auto-starting process that used the Windows Task Scheduler service to load when the user logs into Windows (sometimes this is required to bypass the UAC protection). The assembly utilizes the .NET run-time framework (which is required to be installed on the PC). This version is designed to run on Windows 7 and is compiled as a 32 bit program.
