Windows 10: Edge - Not Smooth URL SearchBar

This is an odd one, and a minor gripe, so please bear with me.

As of yesterday when I click the URL searchbar (at the top) the transition to "most popular" and "log" happens in two chunks without a smooth scroll. The best way to describe this is if you click the "..." settings tab to the top right the transition is smooth. That same behavior used to happen also on the URL searchbar, but apparently - as of yesterday - this is not the case. Now it's without that smooth scrolling. Can anyone confirm that this is normal? Nothing has changed to the computer since then, apart for maybe apps auto updating. It's not an issue really, but more of a curiosity I guess. It provokes my ADD.

What is smooth scrolling?

Hi Kenneth,

Smooth scrolling is a feature available in Internet Explorer that allows you to scroll through a web pages smoothly, as the name of the feature suggests. If this is turned off, when scrolling through a web page, you'll notice that the scroll
bar slides down as if it's slightly delayed, but if this is turned on, the scroll bar slides down smoothly, without delay.

This is useful when scanning through long web pages or articles.

To turn on/off smooth scrolling, see the following steps:

• Open Internet Explorer, click the gear icon, and then click
  Internet Options.
  
• Click on the Advanced tab.
• Locate Use smooth scrolling, and tick the check box if you want it turned on/off.

Let us know if you have further questions.
