It should be noted that DesktopOK (see https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1692) also includes similar functionality...

Win 10 now includes this by default, for people who have upgraded and still thought they had to use this app :)

1. Who the fxxk is boby?
2. WizKey is by the same developer... a remarkable coincidence, is it not?
3 WizMouse writes to the registry.

@Wizkey: So, are you the developer of Wizmouse? Would be nice to announce it, if so.

Have you guys tried WIZMOUSE? The apps is a bit bigger im KB but...:
1. The amount of memory it uses is lower and doesn´t increase that much when you work on several windows.
2. The responsiveness of the scrolling is way better and the window titlebar doesn´t blink like AlwaysMouseWheel.
Please comment on this.

It still breaks ctrl+wheel zoom in Excel. Until that's fixed, it's a no-go to me
