Enabling scrolling on Magic Mouse with Windows 11 Pro

I have paired Magic Mouse with my laptop. The version on my laptop is Windows 11 pro. I want to enable scrolling option but i 'am unable to do so. I have tried installing drivers via the link provided in FAQ's, that didn't work out. So kindly help me out.

This happens because Windows doesn’t include Apple’s multitouch driver by default, so the mouse works only as a basic pointer until the proper driver is installed.


See if the following can help. Sorry, I don't have either device handy so I'm going by my notes.


  • Download AppleWirelessMouse64.exe (part of the Boot Camp drivers). The easiest way is to get the latest Boot Camp Support Software directly from Apple’s website.
  • Extract the ZIP.
  • Navigate to: BootCamp > Drivers > Apple > AppleWirelessMouse64.exe
  • Run that installer and restart your PC.


If scrolling still doesn’t work, using something like: Magic Utilities. It’s paid software but offers a trial and gives full gesture and scrolling support for Magic Mouse and Trackpad on Windows 11.


Alternately, if you want a free workaround, install the open-source Magic Mouse 2 Utilities driver from GitHub — it enables vertical/horizontal scrolling and battery level display, though gestures may be limited.
