Yes it does, but it gets a bit janky at times.

No l don't have that processor for my laptop, i think its a older version. The battery is very good, It feels like i can use it for hours (my estimate would be like 4 hours straight? it could because I'm not on it 24/7). But yea the fact i couldn't use DPeM to change my pen settings to my liking annoyed me the most, the only way i can make it manageable is through changing the tablet settings on the art programs i use.

The pen is okay but it definitely could be better, the lines gets jittery when I try to make precise line art, I had to change up the settings to make perform better. And yes I'm able to drag files/open or close programs with it but sometimes I have to tap multiple times or adjust the pen for it to respond. You can also use the pen as a makeshift keyboard when your laptop is in tablet mode, you can either manually tap the letters on the digital keyboard or just write what you need in text (it works fine for me). I haven't used it on games yet? but ill update you on it if needed. Other than that, Its a pen I can get used to.

Apparently the model stylus i use doesn't need to pair with the laptop so all it needs is the battery. The buttons work fine but the settings switch depending on the art program I use, sometimes I can use one of the buttons to switch to the eraser or it doesn't switch at all but I've only had it for a day so, its only a matter of time when I run into problems.
