Turn Off Browser Scrolling When by Space Bar is Pressed

Windows 10 Pro 1709, MS Surface Book, Chrome and IE Browser.

Any time I have Chrome or IE browser open the screen scrolls down one page each time I press the keyboard Space Bar, then up one page when I press Shift+Space Bar

When I am typing on a web page I'll often inadvertently touch the Space Bar, the screen scrolls then the page I am typing on moves off screen out of view. It is very annoying.

How do I turn this feature OFF.

Thanks in advance.

 

Space..Bar

Hi Regina,

There are different reasons why your space bar and other keys are not responding.
For us to properly isolate your concern, we'd like to know the following:

• When was the last time that your space bar and other keys were working?
• Have you made any changes on your machine prior to this issue?
• Have you installed all pending updates on your machine?
• What is the build and version of your Windows?

In the meantime, we suggest that you run a
quick test scan
first on your computer to check for possible errors.
You can visit your computer manufacturer’s website to access their
Diagnostic Tool. The tool will help us determine if the issue has something to do with the hardware or software of
your computer. If an error is detected, it will automatically fix and recommend other troubleshooting steps to resolve your issue.

We'll be waiting for your response.
