My scroll wheel no longer works in the Firefox browser. I'm certain that it isn't a mechanical issue because it works fine in any other application. I cannot scroll up or down using the wheel so I am forced to use the scrollbar which is very annoying.

Is there any way to get the scroll wheel working in Firefox again?

Hi,

Thank you for your question. It sounds like you may be seeing the result of a known issue in respect of X-Mouse Button Control software on your computer.

This is something that we are aware of and have communicated to the developer of X-Mouse Button Control. They are currently testing a solution to this and we hope they can make it more widely available soon.

For more information, please see the X-Mouse Button Control in Firefox 110 support article.
