Stop Firefox scrolling through history

Stop Firefox scrolling through history

If you use a trackpad on a laptop, you may find that Firefox scrolls back and forward through history as you move the mouse pointer over its window.

Solution

This behavior can be prevented in the Firefox configuration.
  • Enter about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
  • Search for mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action.
  • Double-click this item and set its value to 0.
  • Search for mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines.
  • Double-click it to change the value from false to true.
Applies to
  • Mozilla Firefox
