Managed Preferences - Scroll greyed out still?

I accidentally sent a managed preference to set scroll to not natural, to a bunch of machines that were not supposed to have it.

I have removed them from the scope and restarted the machines with no luck. I have also tried flushPolicyHistory, flushCaches and sudo jamf mcx to no avail. It is still greyed out and unchangeable

Any help here would be much appreciated

For anyone else who may face this issue. The way we resolved this was to run this command in terminal

sudo dscl . -mcxdelete /Computers/localhost

and then restart the machine

You might try deleting the preference from /Library/Managed Preferences and then run

killall cfprefsd

Hi @rdwhitt thanks for the info

Just tried that with no luck, even after a restart. Still greyed out
