• If you have software called XMouse control? if so you can try creating a separate profile for Files.exe > Options > enable Disable Scroll Window Under Cursor

• You can also try going to Windows Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Mouse > Enable Scroll inactive windows when hovering over them

• It may also be caused by For Windows WinUI3 windows are always "inactive" microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml#8764 in this case it can not be fixed in Files but the above option should get it working.

Windows Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Mouse > Enable Scroll inactive windows when hovering over them
is enabled in my Windows 11, I turned it off and on but nothing worked.

I don't have Xmouse

Can you see if scrolling works in the WinUI 3 Gallery app?

I have a similar no scroll situation using Logitech mouse where middle scroll button doesn't work in Files.

Which layout mode? Does scrolling work in the settings dialog?

Not in any of the layout and not in the settings dialog, i.e. left click and drag the scroll bar works - even if the scroll bar is a bit narrow ;-) - but does not scroll with middle scroll wheel.
