Instructions on how to fix Zoom mouse rolling error in Excel from A to Z

Before getting to how to fix the zoomed mouse wheel, the admin will explain more clearly about the default features in Excel related to mouse wheel scrolling as follows:

1. If the user holds down the Ctrl key and moves the mouse wheel > Excel will zoom the worksheet.
2. If the user holds down the Shift key and moves the mouse wheel > Excel will automatically scroll the worksheet horizontally.

Thus, the mouse wheel zooming in and out in Excel is not an Excel problem. But this is just an available feature! This feature is quite convenient but many people do not like it. Fortunately, you can completely disable this zoom in/out mouse wheel feature in Excel. Detailed implementation will be in the next section.

 

How to adjust mouse wheel in Excel

In case you do not want to turn off the feature, please be careful not to hold down the Ctrl key while moving the mouse to avoid zooming in or out. What if you are sure that you are not holding down the Crtl key but when you roll the mouse you still zoom. It's time for you to check your computer keyboard to see if the Ctrl button is stuck or not? Because this may be the reason why you just need to roll the mouse to zoom in or out in zoom.

If you want to turn off the zoom wheel completely, here are the steps for you to do in Excel.

1. Step 1 : The user accesses the open Excel > Click the File tab .
2. Step 2 : Select Options in the left menu displayed.
3. Step 3 : A new window will appear > Click Advanced in the list of options on the left of the screen.
4. Step 4 : Scroll to ' Editing options ' section.
5. Step 5 : Find the line ' Zoom on roll with Intellimouse ' > By default, this line will be enabled. If you don't want to hold Ctrl and move the mouse to zoom, uncheck 'Zoom on roll with Intellimouse' then click OK to save to complete the process.

Note:

If the above method is still not effective and Zoom still appears when scrolling the mouse. You should turn off Ctrl Scroll zoom in Windows. Because as I said from the beginning, when holding down Ctrl and moving the mouse wheel, it will zoom in/out. And this feature is for both web browsers/word/excel or other applications.

However, there is no built-in feature in Windows to disable Ctrl Scroll zoom. So you need to rely on 3rd party programs if you want to remove this feature. You can learn and install No Mouse Wheel Zoom Tool or AutoHotkey and see!

The steps above are how to fix the Zoom mouse rolling error in Excel that TipsMake wants to share. Surely this trick won't be difficult for you, right? Hope you guys do it successfully!
