On your PC get to Mouse setup
Find 'Scrolling'
Check 'Scroll inactive windows when hovering over them'
Seems to work.
Scroll wheel in phone link?
Phone Link is great to access android apps running on my phone. However, scrolling is very cumbersome. Is there a way to simply use the mouse scroll wheel to scroll rather then having to click and drag with the mouse? If not, is there a place to request this feature?

2023-11-27T00:54:39+00:00 I only got around to using Phone Link today on my Windows 11 desktop. I don't have X-mouse installed, but I tried your suggestion "turned on Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them" and mouse wheel scrolling in Phone Link now works perfectly. Thanks!

2022-10-13T22:15:29+00:00 It's crazy that this is a thing. Like, what kind of computer application doesn't let you scroll? It won't even let me scroll in the What's New, or Settings tab. The nonresponse from Elise was also insanely useless. ****? Is this happening to only a small subset of people? What OS are you guys on? I'm on Windows 10. Maybe this is Microsoft trying to force the last holdouts onto Windows 11?
