MouseWheel event always returning Count=0

I have been happily using for years this simple routine for moving records in a form using the mouse wheel event:

Private Sub Form_MouseWheel(ByVal Page As Boolean, ByVal Count As Long)
     On Error Resume Next
     DoCmd.GoToRecord, , IIf(Count < 0, acPrevious, acNext)
End Sub

Not withstanding, this afternoon the MouseWheel Count is always returning 0, so records always move forward (acNext), and never backward (acPrevious).

Has someone noticed this same behavior?

I'm using the most recent Spanish version of Access: Microsoft 365 MSO (versión 2412 compilación 16.0.18324.20092) 64 bits.

    Yes, I reported about this issue 3 weeks ago, refer to:

    Your only option currently is to rollback your installation to a prior stable build. If you're not familiar with that process, see:

    This is the 3rd report I am aware of about this problem. I believe it has been brought to the attention of the Access team (although it's the weekend and they might not gave the report in hand yet.)

    Thank you for including the Version where you encountered the problem.

    Many thanks for your indications. Reverting back to the previous version 2411 (Build 18227.20162) following the clear instructions in your video solved the problem.

    I hope MS Access team would quickly solve this awkward regression.

    The Access team have now confirmed this is a bug and that it will be fixed in the not too distant future.

    News from the Access team:

    The mouse wheel issue will be fixed in version 2501, which will be available next week (W/C 27 Jan)

    My related article on the Access Forever blog site will be updated again when the release date and build number are known

    The Beta Channel should be fixed at around the same time
