When on some websites, the computer will scroll down or to the bottom of the page after I enter a comment or answer a question. How do I stop the computer from doing this? It's not on every website, but most of them. I have Windows 10 Home. A Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse set up.

I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

• Does this issue happen only when you try scrolling the pages?
• Are you trying to scroll the pages from the browser or does the issue persists when try to scroll the page on documents too?
• Did you install any third party security application?
• Did you install all the pending updates?

It is a bit difficult to pinpoint on the root cause of the issue, however we may try to narrow down the issue and as an initial troubleshooting step,
suggest you to download and install any pending updates that needs to be installed on the computer through Windows update and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

If the issue still persists, run maintenance task and check if it helps.

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.
