Easiest solution would be to use Shift + Mouse Wheel for scrolling horizontally.
For Windows 7 there's only either one of horizontal or vertical scrollbar present by default, and regular Mouse Wheel scrolling can be used in both cases as there's only one present at a time.

Sorry, as is, this doesn't work for me - or do I have to configure the filedialog? – HJarausch Jan 24 '18 at 19:40
