Oy!
I got this 3-4 years old mouse that its wheel won't scroll up nor down. It scrolls for half turn and than scrolling gets hard, impossible.
Should i open and clean the wheel? | | | |

You could try to tinker with it, but it's rarely worth the effort. Much simpler to get another mouse - preferably with good ergonomics. | | | |

You should google for instructions or find a video in YT and fix it. | | | |

The main point is to stick to the old mouse to which your hand is used. It's like old shoes/jeans/your_variant.
New mouse, even "magic", "Apple", "expensive" may not fit. I gave away a few new mice after trying them, after which I bought a pack of microswitches online, and now I solder in a new one when necessary (did it twice). | | | |

I've got a box full of fancy mice on my shelf and I've ended up using quite a basic one
