A responder inquires if help is still needed, but the original poster notes that the issue has stabilized for now after reinstalling the software, though they remain cautious it may return.

W8.1. Vertical scroll with an MS 5000 wireless mouse is fine for weeks, then suddenly it's on steroids.\
Changing it in Mouse PROPERTIES (or the registry) returns speed to normal, but only until the next boot, when it reverts to fast.

Reinstalling MS Mouse and Keyboard Center software is a Link Removed - for a time. Then the scenario is repeated.

Clues as to why the setting doesn't "stick?"

Likely not missed - simply no answer. ^_^ Vert scroll has remained stable for a week, after MS Mouse/Keyboard Ctr reinstall.
I expect it will fail again - but for now, crossing fingers...

Thanks for checking in.
