Scrolling

Pressing the scroll button on my mouse produces a page back instead of scroll arrows. This happens on all sites. I have disabled hardware acceleration, but that has no effect on the problem.

I am using latest version of Firefox, on Windows 10.

Is the setting "Use autoscrolling" enabled in the Firefox settings? Menu -> General -> Browsing section

That's not the problem. The buttons are configured correctly in settings.

Thanks. It was not enabled and I don't know how that happened. But it's enabled now and so is my scroll button.

I just noticed a bug reported for Sync where the "Use autoscrolling" is deselected. It's fixed for tomorrows update.

Happy Surfing!
