Since you have not attached a keyboard and want to use a stylus pen - Unfortunately the Surface Laptop Go 2 does not support pen input.

I installed windows 11 21h1 from scratch, so no vpn or antivirus, no windows update problem and the pen works, I install the updates by windows update one by one and between each installation I restart and test the stylus, no worries it works.
As soon as I install KB5028185 or any later cumulative update, it doesn't work anymore....
Surface Laptop Go 2 supports pen input, but once KB5028185 no longer opens the keyboard, you must use your finger.
And it's not just the stylus, indeed if in Settings-->Time and language-->Input-->Touch keyboard: in display touch keyboard I put "When no keyboard is attached" there it does not show at all even with my finger, I have to put here "always"

If you have the chat option i suggest you chat with them.
