    File Explorer Automatically Scrolls / Jumps to Top of Folder in Windows 10


    When I am browsing files and folders in File Explorer, The user is scrolling down in a folder/directory and suddenly File Explorer jumps or scrolls to the top of the folder automatically. It is frustrating if I am selecting multiple files/folders, renaming a file/folder, once this issue occurs File Explorer forgets user’s selection or activity and it opens the folder from scratch like the user just opened it. In such situations, the user is forced to start the task from beginning. I have tried - Disabling “Automatically pick an accent color from my background” option.- Under&nbs

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. Windows 10 File Explorer - Scroll bar keeps jumping to top of folder files.

    It appears that the reason File Explorer jumps back to the top is associated with having your screen saver set to change every 10 seconds and the color scheme change automatically. Since Microsoft doesn't intend to fix this bug in Windows 10, the thing
    to do is to download a program called "JustManage". This program shows two windows panes that allow you to scroll through hundreds of files and it won't jump back to the top.

    file explorer scroll bar keep jumping to top


    Hi Shawn.

    Can you help with file explorer scroll bar that keep on jumping to the top. I actually knew it since few builds back. I thought it's already resolved. That was why, last week when I got an offer of free upgrade on my samsung ativ running win 8.1n didn't think much, just hit the button and upgraded to Win 10. Later I found my file list on the explorer keep jumping to the top just like the previous trial I have in other PC.
    Can you help me with that? (I already sent feed back to MS through Windows Feedback app)

    Thank in advance.

    Kevin
