On YouTube the little arrows at the top and bottom of the scroll bar have disappeared. They are there on everything else, just not YouTube. I can't scroll down slowly, just in big jumps. Any ideas boffins?

Have you tried different browsers to see if happens consistently?

I dont think they've been there for a while for me (if I'm thinking the same thing). I jsut click in some white space and then use the up down arrows on the keyboard to scroll up/down.

Same for me with Chrome for Mac. There's no scroll bar until you mouse up or down.

Any ideas why the pointer/arrow thing on my laptop has disappeared? Been fucking on for ages trying to get it back with no joy.

I'm assuming you're a PC user running W10, if so, try this:

I just Googled it, appears to be the same fix for W7, W8 & W10. Hope it works for you.
