Control Whether Windows Performs Smooth Scrolling (All Windows)
Category: Home > Windows > Appearance
This setting allow you to disable the Windows smooth scrolling function, which on an low-powered system can cause performance degradation.
Open your registry and find the key below.
Modify the value, or create a new binary value, named "SmoothScroll" and set it to either '0' for disabled or '1' for enabled.
Log off or restart Windows for the change to take effect.
Note: On some versions of Windows this value may be REG_BINARY (00 00 00 00 = disabled, 01 00 00 00 = enabled) instead.
