Magic Mouse 2 scrolling [Bootcamp]

Can someone please help me with this, I downloaded the 3 files a couple years back on to make the MM2 fully work on Windows 7 x64 no issues, but when I updated my windows 7 using Apple Support update, it installed everything, but the scrolling doesn't work, yet L & R buttons work no issues. I tried to contact Apple directly since I forgotten how to fix this and Apple tells me to call Microsoft since they say this is a Windows software issue and they created the drivers, but when I finally decide to call Microsoft knowing I wasn't gonna get anywhere with them, they said its a Apple issue since its their mouse and that it was also a hardware issue, needless to say I didn't get anywhere with both and hopefully someone can provide these drivers and hopefully help on getting this issue fixed.

I tired to download the Bootcamp 6 drivers through BCA, but when I checked the version number even on a Mac I already have windows 10 on from Mac OSX it still only downloads 5.1.etc for bootcamp.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, Windows 7

Brigadier (https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier) can download the BC drivers for the Model, available at swcdn.apple.com .

W7 drivers are BC 5.x drivers. W10 are BC 6.x drivers. If you used any third-party drivers, Apple cannot provide them.

For W7 drivers, use Install Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp .

For W10, use BCA -> Action -> Download to get the BC drivers appropriate for your Mac.

The MM2 is working fully on Mac OSX High Sierra as well. When I use the Apple Update Software in Windows (Both Versions) there are no avaible updates, normally Apple pushes out some update called "Apple Input Device" or something similar and normally when installing it will disconnect my mouse then reconnect it and the mouse when moving wouldn't zip across the screen super fast, everything worked smoothly and then the scrolling would then work.

You can create a Windows System Restore point, before you install the BC drivers.

What is the currently installed macOS version on each of the Macs running W7 and W10?

That doesn't help me at all, All I need is the driver for the MM2 to work, Everything works besides the scrolling on W7, and so far none of the drivers I tried to use on that chart works which leads to go to Bootcamp 6 which I can't get an not even apple can give me the direct links.

Does scrolling work on the W7 Mac when you are in macOS?

For the W10 Mac, how are you downloading the BC drivers?
