virtualbox.org

I am trying to figure this out... I happen to unfortunately have to use windows for onenote. There is just not a viable alternative : (.

I have a MX Anywhere 2, and had a MX Master... the MX master is broken so I am left with the MX Anywhere 2...


It is a combination mouse... it can connect by either Bluetooth, or usb receiver. I prefer the bluetooth.

Regardless of the connection, I can not get the sideways / vertical scroll function, which is the scroll wheel pressed left or right to work.

On the MX master it was a thumb scroll wheel.

On ubuntu, it works fantastic.

I really need this working in windows 10 guest.


I see solutions for VMWare, but I really like virtualbox and would prefer to stay with virtualbox. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.


I have the enhancements download installed
the guest add ons
and have tried enabling / disabling mouse integration.

As an alternative solution to paying for closed source or using windows, I have used the program autohotkey and the following script to ad horizontal scrolling in windows 10 with onenote 2016.
