  Reverse scroll direction on Windows 8 

  Powershell commands:

  PowerShell

  # View registry settings Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HID\*\*\Device` Parameters FlipFlopWheel -EA 0 # Change registry settings # Reverse mouse wheel scroll FlipFlopWheel = 1 # Normal mouse wheel scroll FlipFlopWheel = 0 Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HID\*\*\Device` Parameters FlipFlopWheel -EA 0 | ForEach-Object { Set-ItemProperty $_.PSPath FlipFlopWheel 1 } # The command for normal (non-inverted) scrolling has the `0` and `1` swapped: # Restore default scroll direction Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HID\*\*\Device` Parameters FlipFlopWheel -EA 1 | ForEach-Object { Set-ItemProperty $_.PSPath FlipFlopWheel 0 }

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

  Switching around from Windows and Mac OS x can be a bit confusing, so I decided to reverse the scroll direction on my Windows machines, so they would feel the same as under Mac OS x.
  Here is how I did it:

  1. Find the Hardware ID for your mouse
     • Go to the mouse control panel
     • Select “Hardware” tab
     • Click “Properties” button
     • Select “Details” tab
     • From the drop-down list choose “Hardware IDs”
     • Save the VID*** entry ( e.g. VID_045E&PID_0039 )
  2. Find and change the corresponding configuration settings in the registry
     • Run regedit.exe (With administrator rights)
     • Navigate to the Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HID
     • Find the Hardware ID entry of your mouse
     • Under all subkeys of the Hardware ID key look for the “DeviceParameters” key and change the “FlipFlopWheel” value from 0 to 1
  3. Making it work:
     • Unplug your mouse
     • Wait a few moments
     • Plug in your mouse
