I hate it. I simply cannot stand it. Does anyone know how to actually disable this feature? The following code does NOT work on macOS Sierra:



defaults write com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse MouseHorizontalScroll -bool NO

          You can use MagicPrefs to disable it. After installing it, you can open its Preference Pane in System Preferences and click "Configure Scrolling". Note that to completely disable horizontal scrolling, you also need to disable diagonal scrolling. You can choose to disable it for one or two or three finger scrolling.

            In 2018, MagicPrefs is no longer able to control the magic mouse.
