You may be surprised to realize how productive you are when resorting to your innate skills, and not your acquired capabilities. Still, people may have different views on instinctive behavior, and what one sees as natural, another could consider atypical.
To get a better idea of what such a situation implies, you can think of the mouse scrolling direction. You may have noticed that, in Windows, by default, your mouse wheel and the web page your are scrolling up or down move in opposite directions. So in order to scroll down, you actually need to flick up on your mouse.
Fortunately, there is a software utility that can prove of great help if you don’t find this behavior natural. It is dubbed Flip Mouse Wheel, and as said, it provides you with full control of the scrolling direction.
You simply need to double-click its executable in order to be prompted with a window showing all the devices you want to affect. Clicking the “Show All” button should display a list of all available mouse devices.
It is important to mention that, for each of them, you can reverse the scroll direction, both for vertical and horizontal movements.
If you deem that comfortable, you cam mimic the Mac OS scrolling direction, which means your mouse wheel and the website you are visiting will move in sync, as if using a touch device.
Note that turning back to your initial settings is one click away, with the “All Normal” button being close at hand for this type of scenario. On the other hand, flipping all devices can be done as well in order to save time.
Regardless of your choice, you need to know that you need to remove your USB mouse then plug it once more for the changes to show.
On an ending note, Flip Mouse Wheel is a lightweight application that tweaks your OS’ behavior so that its scrolling direction is reversed. Your mouse wheel will change behavior for both vertical and horizontal scrolling, with the mention that reverting to defaults can be easily done as well, which once again shows the app is easy to interact with and requires little user input.
