How to Enable or Disable Always Show Scrollbars in Microsoft Edge

You enable or disable always-on scrollbars in Microsoft Edge by adjusting a specific setting within the browser’s appearance options.

Microsoft Edge, built on the Chromium engine and the default browser for Windows 11, allows you to control whether scrollbars permanently appear or auto-hide.

By default, Edge uses auto-hiding scrollbars, which only become visible when you move your mouse over them. This setting is typically enabled for a cleaner look.

You can choose to keep scrollbars always visible if you prefer direct visual cues for page navigation.
