I have been using this browser for a little while now and quite like it. The trouble is though, that the scrollbar appears for a second then disappears on some sites, AB being one of them.
I've searched for a solution but those I've found are a bit too techy for me.
Anybody here had this problem?

Have you adopted a theme of your own choice or are you using the 'out of the box' default one?

Hi Buenchico. I've tried a few themes including it's out of the box one and it's still the same.
Hmmm.

I'm getting lost.

I can't remember the last time that I actually used the scroll bar in a browser anyway. Can you scroll using your mouse wheel?
This happened to me a while ago - I cleared the cache, restarted in "Safe Mode", closed the browser, reopened it (it opens automatically in "normal" mode) & the scroll bar was back.

I've *no idea* what caused it to start with, nor what my actions actually did to fix it, but the problem hasn't reoccurred since.

Ok, first sorry for the late reply.
Buenchico, I should have mentioned that when the scroll bar disappears so does the ability to scroll using the wheel.

Lie-in King, I did all that but it's just the same. Thanks anyway.

It's no big deal as I have other browsers, but it is annoying.

I'mLost' - apologies back to you for the late reply :-)

Are you on the latest version of PM? It should be 28.0.0. You knew how to do the other stuff I mentioned, so I'll assume you know how to check the version & then for updates.

When you restarted in "Safe Mode", was the bar visible then? If so, it might be worth disabling any add-ons you have, one at a time, until (hopefully) the bar appears in "Normal" mode. Whichever one you turned off at that point *might* be the cause of the problem.

I've had a look through the Forum & there isn't much to go on, as you've discovered yourself - perhaps if disabling add-ons doesn't bring any joy, post a Q of your own there?
