Magic Mouse 2 scrolling feature on Boot Camp Windows 10

As it seems a recurrent problem, the scrolling feature the Magic Mouse 2 doesn't work in Windows 10 with Boot Camp on Mac. I have done my research but neither the solution of downloading the BC drivers manually through https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1837?locale=en_US or directly using BC Assistant > Action > Download as worked yet.

My device is a MacBook Pro 2018 running Catalina 10.15.7 and W10.

Thank you for your help out there !

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Download Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5769 does not support W10. These support W7/W8.1 only, as noted

If you need W10 drivers, Download and install Windows support software on your Mac - Apple Support.

Do you have any unknown devices in Windows Device Manager?

Does the Bootcamp Control Panel have a Trackpad and Mouse Window?

Is the MM2 paired as a three-button mouse?

Can you change the value of FlipFlopWheel and test?

See https://superuser.com/questions/310681/inverting-direction-of-mouse-scroll-wheel for reference.

Also, if you run Apple Software Update, do you see the highlighted Update?

W10 drivers are already installed, following the procedure Download and install Windows support software on your Mac - Apple Support. Still the scrolling isn't working.

The MM2 is present in the Bluetooth file in Windows Device Manager.

The Bootcamp Control Panel doesn't have a Mouse Window, only Trackpad.

Where to specify that the Mouse is three-button type when pairing ?

Yes everything is there. MM2 paired as HID- compliant mouse. FlipFlopWheel property is there. Still no scrolling. And each time I boot in W10 I have to remove the MM2 from the Bluetooth Devices and pair it again in order for it to work. Although the MM2 is present in the Bluetooth Devices, I can only reconnect it to the computer by removing the device and pair it again.

I tried to remove the MM2 from the devices on W10 then also on the MAC side and reconnected it in W10 first. After that operation the scrolling did work until I left W10. When I did came back to work on W10, I had to remove again the MM2 from the devices in order to connect it and then I was back to no scrolling.

I can't do again the operation of removing the MM2, because I didn't even paired it again on MAC yet.
