My mouse model is: Logitech M90. After starting zorin os when I try to scroll using the mouse scroll, It doesn't work then after some time it starts auto scrolling here and there. But other button's work properly.
Try to switch to Xorg. Logout and at login click on your profile then a cog wheal appears where you can set "Zorin desktop on Xorg". Look if that helps.
I read that enabling edge scrolling at settings>mouse and touchpad>touchpad could help.
Another solution could be to install imwheel.
Do you have this behavior in all apps or only in special ones, e.g. browser?
When it is only in your browser disable hardware acceleration there.

This behavior is in all apps
The problem was solved after disabling Memory fast boot from Boot Menu.

Again facing this issue, and this time it's really weird. I tried using A4tech 620d mouse in that the left and right click doesn't properly work, on other hand the Logitech M90 scrolling doesn't properly work.
Do you have Dualboot with Windows? If yes, disable fast startup there.
Try to disable touchpad if you only use the mouse.
Try another USB plug.
Does it help to re-connect the mouse or to connect it after boot/waking up?
Does this issue always appear (also after shutdown), or only after suspend?
I don't have dualboot.
Install Solaar, a package to control Logitech devices via Terminal:
sudo apt install solaar

It's not working.
It is possible that you have a model that solaar does not work with. Using Brave A.I. super crawler engine with Ubuntu 22.04 as search criteria as that is what Zorin 17 is built on comes back with:
Logitech M90 Mouse Not Working with Solaar on Ubuntu 22.04
The Logitech M90 mouse may not be detected by Solaar on Ubuntu 22.04 due to compatibility issues or missing configuration. While Solaar supports the majority of Logitech Unifying devices, not all models are compatible, and the M90 might not be on the supported list. First, verify your Solaar version, as Ubuntu 22.04 includes a newer version (1.1.1) that should be sufficient for many devices. If you have an older version, update it using the official PPA: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:solaar-unifying/stable followed by sudo apt update and sudo apt install solaar .
Ensure the necessary udev rules are in place. Check for the file /etc/udev/rules.d/42-logitech-unify-permissions.rules and, if missing, install it from the Solaar GitHub repository. Reload the udev rules with sudo udevadm control --reload-rules and then unplug and replug the Unifying receiver. Additionally, confirm your user is part of the plugdev group, as this is required for device access; log out and back in after adding yourself to the group.
If the mouse still isn't detected, it could be a kernel module conflict. Check if the hid_logitech_dj module is loaded with lsmod | grep logi . If so, it might interfere with Solaar; you can blacklist it by creating a file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf with the line blacklist hid_logitech_dj , then run sudo rmmod hid_logitech_dj and replug the receiver. For further troubleshooting, use the solaar -d command to view debug output.

Maybe this gnome extension helps supporting Wayland if you are on Wayland and not on XOrg.
Solaar isn't detecting the mouse , its a wired mouse not wireless.
I looked up that mouse, it appears to be a basic 12 dollar office mouse model. I have a Logitech G502 gaming mouse, and I can confirm, it shows up on the Solaar APP. I'm using a SteelSeries Aerox 5 mouse now days though.
I think it could be kernel related issue because It's happening after previous 2 or 3 kernel updates as long as i can remember.
You could at boot in grub menu select "Advanced options for Zorin" select an older kernel to boot from and look if that helps. If yes, you can set this older kernel for future as the default one.
If grub menu isn't shown at boot, press continuosly esc (on some devices tab) while booting (or if you have a legacy BIOS left shift key).
