Reverse Mouse Wheel scroll in Windows 11

Chose between natural mode like MacOS or Windows default mode.

Step 1: Open Windows PowerShell in Administrator Mode.

You can do this by going to Start Menu, type PowerShell, and click Run as Administrator.

Step 2: Copy the following code and paste it in the command line of Windows PowerShell:

$mode = Read-host "How do you like your mouse scroll (0 or 1)?"; Get-PnpDevice -Class Mouse -PresentOnly -Status OK | ForEach-Object { "$($_.Name): $($_.DeviceID)"; Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\$($_.DeviceID)\Device Parameters" -Name FlipFlopWheel -Value $mode; "+--- Value of FlipFlopWheel is set to " + (Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\$($_.DeviceID)\Device Parameters").FlipFlopWheel + "`n" }

The code above is one-liner PowerShell script. Copy-paste it as-is.

Step 3: It will ask how do you like your mouse to scroll.

Downward wheel motion makes the page...

0 - Move up so you see contents below (Default Mode, Windows behavior)

1 - Move down so you can see contents above (Natural Mode, Mac behavior, reverse mode)

Type the number that corresponds to your scroll preference.

Step 4: Restart your computer.

Your settings will take effect after you restart.

Step 5 (optional)

Give yourself a favor and buy a Mac.

Bro you rock ! much appreciated !

THANK YOU!!!

Thank you very much friend, now I want to change some things on my keyboard to make it the same as Apple.starting with copy and paste.

I use something similar and used the same source.

But I also wanted a way to be selective on which mouse I wanted to change. So I came up with the following script which relies on you unplugging the mouse. So it can compare and see which ones you want to modify.
