Can someone suggest a fix ? my middle mouse button is not working , at all . i installed the MS software , but then when hovering over the volume slider in youtube , it starts going down . or when i try to scroll normally with right click - it scrolls like 4 words and stop . depends how fast i move my mouse . also i tried messing with the lines the scroll wheel does when i scroll , and it keep pressing it up , (goes from 4-8 - 12 - 16 and so on) if i hover on it .
i disabled the touchpad , still does not work .
kinda losing hope . i really love this mouse.
i'm using a dell R15 5521 laptop , never had a problem before . been using this setup for years .

OK i fixed it . opened the mouse , cleaned it (a LOT of stuff there .) cleaned the wheel and diode . scrolling is better then ever . even too fast lol !
