Windows Pen Scrolling Problem

Problem: Fall Creators Update (latest version of Windows) changed the dominant behaviour of the pen from selection to scrolling. Result: Any attempt now to drag the tip of a pen across a block of text for the purpose of selection, results in the document being scrolled instead of the block of text being selected. I need a solution that will disable the pen scrolling feature and allow me to select text as I was able to prior to updating to Fall Creators Update. Important: The solution should work for any Windows Application running in the Fall Creators Update (including UWP Apps).
