Hi, With the newest release 100 my scroll bar has changed. Its now some itty bitty thin cant find unless you hover out it thing. I want the regular wide colored scroll bar I had. Is there a way to change it back?

Thank you

Scrollbars on Linux and Windows 11 won't take space by default. On Linux, users can change this in Settings. On Windows, Firefox follows the system setting (System Settings > Accessibility > Visual Effects > Always show scrollbars).

You can look at this pref on about:config.

  • widget.non-native-theme.win11.scrollbar.force-overlay-style

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. If you get the warning page, you can click the "Accept the Risk and Continue" button.

Thank you so much

I just stumbled upon a solution for myself. I had already changed my default browser to Edge due to frustration with the hair-thin scroll bar issue. In Windows 11 go to Accessibility settings > Visual effects and enable "Always show scroll bars." Hope it works for others :).
