My Firefox has suddenly stopped working when websites have menus you need to scroll through on the right side. Example: websites where you are drilling down through filter options, or in Ancestry where you will typically open a record in the hints screen and scroll down through the detail. The right scroll navigation causes the whole page to scroll up and down; there's no way to navigate down in the sub-display. I have run FF in safe mode, and done a scorched-earth uninstall/reinstall and the problem persists even with no plug-ins restored. This is on a machine running Windows 11. The machine crashed right before this became a problem. Sites work in Edge without issue.

Do you still have the horizontal scroll bar? If the scroll bars disappeared when you updated, the update may have changed the setting on the General page of Settings under Browsing - Always show scrollbars.

Hi Terry. Thanks for the speedy response. When I go into the FF settings, there are no results related to the scroll bars when putting "scroll" in the search box. However I believe I have now isolated it via a Win11 fix; under accessibility there is an option to always show scroll bars. This restored functionality on the sites where I was noticing this problem.
