After the last Windows 10 update was installed, my scroll inactive windows setting for my mouse no longer works in Excel 2016 without selecting the window first. This is a major inconvenience. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks.

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
It has been months, 3 to be exact, and the problem persists. MS really doesn't give a **** about their business customers huh?
So this thread has been abandoned by Microsoft staff? No help with this issue at all?
This needs to be escalated. This is a GIANT problem.

Yes, excel opens, but we're also back to the original problem, at least on my machine, so I guess I'm also back to haranguing Microsoft till they fix it :) Thanks for the suggestions though.
I just tested to copy/rename EXCEL.exe of Excel 2010 under Windows 7.
Both, copying and renaming of the Excel 2010 exe-file caused error (missing MSVCR90.dll).
When the copy is named EXCEL.exe it works.
==> It looks Excel 2010 does not open when its exe-file name is different from EXCEL,
whereas Excel 2013 has no problem to open on the copied(/renamed) excel.exe
(Windows 7 or 10 seems no to be the reason for the copied Excel 2010 not opening)
I tried this and it broke some display settings or fonts or something in Excel. I'm guessing that I would need to change the default program for some additional Excel-related file types. Anyway, I reversed it and am living with the issue for now.
