MagicMouse2 in Windows 10

Well I had been looking forward to getting my hands on Microsoft Surface Arc Mouse for a real long time. But when the time came I had to rethink. In fact I ordered the same and returned the package as it was the Version 1 released sometime in 2016. So when I got a chance to reorder the same I did an overall study and comparison between Surface Arc Mouse and Apple Magic Mouse 2. I chose the later one. There are a quite a bit of things that stand out for Apple Magic Mouse 2 and it's my personal opinion.

Enough of history. Now for the real reason of this blog is to keep or help Windows 10 users get the driver for Apple Magic Mouse 2 so that they can work with Scroll functionality of the mouse. I had to do some study for whole day and then realised there are a couple of ways we can do it. I chose the paid one as well but then it struck me I do not want to pay for some driver and run some third party tool on my Windows just to make a mouse function properly. I hunted down the driver (well it was a couple of hours of googling and downloading). I have put it on a public folder and anyone can download and use it.

So here is the direct link to the ftp location for MagicMouse2 driver for Windows10.

Cheers!!!!
