I use a keyboard and touch pad - instead of a mouse.  The touchpad allows scrolling with two fingers. I've set windows up so that pulling down on the pad pulls the scroll bars down (I'm old). But in the simulator, this is reversed, and it's not using the Windows setting. I can't find anyway to change this behavior and it's driving me nuts.

Is there any way to change the scrolling direction?

I've not got a touch pad so this is purely a guess, but when you go to the Controls menu, select the Touchpad as the controller and then click 'Search By Input' button then if it highlights any setting below, click the Cog icon (for whichever setting may be relevant) and see if the "Set Inverted Axis" button is toggable. If so try switching that and seeing if that works, worth a shot but maybe someone with a touch pad can help better 😊
