How to make scroll wheel zoom work in Windows 10 with Creo Parametric

I had a very difficult time finding a solution for this. I opened a call and PTC said Windows 10 wasn't a supported configuration. Fortunately a curious co-worker discovered the fix. Not having zoom with the scroll wheel was a show stopper for me. Here's how to make it work as before:

1. Select the Start button

 

2. Type "mouse & t" in the search area and press Enter

 

3. In the Mouse & touchpad settings dialog select the toggle for Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them until it displays Off.

 

4. Launch Creo Parametric and marvel at mouse wheel zooming

Thank you very much!

I'm having this same problem with my wireless M590 and the above solutions did not work but I have the other culprit to my problem which solved it and though I would share:

 

If you are having trouble zooming in Creo with mouse wheel go to control panel>hardware sound>mouse and click on the "Wheel" tab and set the option in the vertical scrolling area  "one screen at a time" this solved my problem.

Thank you so so much! Worked like a charm! 😁

Almost 5 years later this is still valid and worked for me. Thanks!

When I needed to use  a remote session to access a machine for troubleshooting it never allowed me to zoom in/out with the scroll, doing this it fixed the issue.

You, sir, are awesome.

Thank you very much!
