How Fix Mouse Scroll Not Working In Internet Explorer

Do you have a problem with mouse scroll not working in Internet Explorer? This is not a mouse problem. It is an issue with some changes in settings inside IE. The most probable culprit is IE add-ons. Add-ons and toolbars are considered the one which creates maximum problem to web browsers.

Try these steps in Internet Explorer

Press Windows Key + R to open Run window
Type inetcpl.cpl. Click OK. This open Internet Options window
Under Programs Tab, click Manage add-ons
Go through the list of add-ons. Disable add-ons one at a time or you can disable all add-ons which you think is not necessary or look suspicious. Then close the window and check if the IE is working fine.

Note: In my case, the issue was fixed after disabling Linkey add-on(Check the above image). Disabling the add-on also fixed an issue where the browser opened new links to Linkey website. Hope you might find a similar add-on on your browser.

If disabling add-on didn’t work, try resetting Internet Explorer

Open Internet Options window
Go to Advanced Tab. Click Reset.
This will reset IE to original manufacturer settings. Once the reset is complete, open IE and check if mouse is working fine.
