Scroll wheel click no longer works in Firefox exclusively
Ever since yesterday, scroll click (I use it to scroll through websites) has stopped working in Firefox. Works in in programs, other browsers, etc., just not Firefox.
Whats weird is it still registers a click when I use it, so I can lick on links with it if I want, but the function of scrolling, either by clicking once and using my mouse to go up and down, or by clicking an holding, no longer works.
I've tried disabling add-ons, incognito mode, nothing seems to work.

OOOK Nevermind, LTT forums figured it out.
Somehow the Autoscrolling got disable under Browsing.

I had the same complaint a few days ago, but it's working now. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/contributors/716014?last=84382#post-84382 Let me go to Win 11 and verify. Can give a few sites where it's not working for you? My main issue was this support site. Decades of scrolling has caught with me which is why I still use Microsoft's Trackball Explorer so I can scroll with my thumb. ;-))
It works for me in Win11. I switch between a few laptops, but all is well so far. see screenshot Are you on a desktop or laptop? If laptop, are you using a dock?

I'm on a desktop. But it literally works on everything else, just not firefox.

I recently experienced this problem. I'd been testing out a few different operating systems, and had logged into my Mozilla account more than once during the tests, after fresh installs. It's likely that a default from one of the configurations that I was testing got saved to my account.
Just mentioning it in case this is something that comes up often, and someone sees this when searching for an answer. I hadn't thought of it myself until I went looking for what might have changed in Firefox.
