How to Fix the Middle Mouse Button Not Working on Windows 10 [Tutorial]

Well, this helped. It was already set to 3 but something about opening and closing the registry change window made the middle mouse button work again! Thanks. Windows is literally held together with bandaids and prayers.

You blabber more than my mother in law FFS

First, You did not need to mess up with your windows registry to change the number of scroll lines for your mouse wheel. It's in the mouse settings under your control panel or settings menu.
Secondly, Restoring a full windows registry back could be catastrophic.
And Lastly, the title of the video says "Middle Mouse Button" and not "Scroll Wheel".
When only windows explorer refuses to respond to the middle mouse button clicks, How do you fix this? Other apps and browsers are responding normally to the middle click but not windows explorer.
Thanks

my mouse is scrolling just fine, BUT the middle button click isnt working . tested in fallout 4.

I literally just blew air under my mouse button and the wheel button is working fine again.

I literally just gave it a relatively hard tap and it's working again even with soft presses. The scrolling was fine, it just wasn't letting me use the button randomly. Works now though thanks to the tried and tested "give it a whack" technique lol

i have to hold it hard

Wow, Thanks for this tutorial, It has worked for me. Cheers
