How can I disable natural scrolling in Zorin OS? The built-in Settings does not have the option, and dconf-editor does not seem to work. Thanks!

Thanks! dconf-editor simply worked in the end. However, I had to use the one in System Tools, not the one I installed from command line.

I was not aware there was a version bundled with Zorin (at least I think there is a bundled version, and not that the one I installed from CLI magically appeared in the System Tools section). The version I initially installed had the natural scrolling option for touchpads, but nothing happened when I changed it, whereas the bundled version worked as expected.

Hi, it could have been an update as (sadly) dconf-tools does not ship with Zorin. ;) :D

Glad you are now sorted. :D
