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

Thanks, looked in there and thought "on" was good!

 

rmyers!  Thank you so much for taking the time to write this.  I just updated to Windows 10 finally and my mouse stopped scrolling in Creo!  This very old post saved my bacon.  Thank you for the pictures and great description.

I have found solutions for Windows 10 in this post, but how do I get Windows 7 with Creo4.0 to work with my mouse? I have no functionality for panning, zooming or rotating.

Made the change and it worked like before. Thank you for sharing!
