Everytime I scroll down on my ultra book (using Windows 10 and the newest Firefox browser), the browser just autohides down.
It's really frustrating, I am so close to throwing my ultra book through a window... It has to do something with the options in Windows 10, but I can't find any usable solution anywhere online...

"... the browser just autohides down."
Are you saying the the Windows Task Bar gets covered by Firefox when you scroll down a webpage?
Are you using the screen or a touchpad?
In "Tablet Mode," some "edge gestures" are enabled. In particular, swiping down from the top of the screen all the way to the bottom could close the active window. However, if you start partway down the screen on the web page, that shouldn't happen.
On the touchpad, apparently a three-finger swipe down will minimize all programs and show the desktop. I don't have a way to confirm that, and you probably aren't using three fingers at once?? See:

No, I am saying that when I am reading something, and I scroll (or move the mouse down) just a bit (from anywhere on the screen), Firefox suddenly disappears to the taskbar under. Sometimes I manage to get it back by doing the same "gesture" again. Just like an autohide gesture which I really, really don`t need :(

I forgot to say - I am using my touchpad which isn't recognized as a touchpad in "mouse and touchpad" options...
Are you trying to use the touchpad to move the "thumb" on the scroll bar, as you would with a mouse? Have you tried other methods? Lately, I usually use two-finger scrolling. The old method of using the right-most part of the touchpad like a trackball doesn't work that well on my newer laptop. Of course, I'm using Windows 7, so I am not familiar with all the oddities of Windows 10.
I am sorry, if I wasn't clear: It happens when I am just moving the cursor of the "mouse" (I have a touchpad) downwards. When I try to use two-finger scrolling, it works for a short while - and then it starts to zoom in the page I am on.
Two-finger scrolling actions can be converted to zooming actions by holding down the Ctrl key. Maybe Firefox is getting confused information about what you are doing on the touchpad and keyboard? Hopefully a Windows 10 user will have a better idea of what's going on.
Yes, I hope so too. Thank you for your time, we'll see if anyone has a solution.
