Developer’s Description

Fix the 'cannot scroll up using certain touch pads' issue for early releases of Google Chrome.

A patch to quickly fix the 'cannot scroll up using certain touch pads' issue for early releases of Google Chrome. The issue is caused by Google Chrome setting incorrect information about it's scroll bars. Scroll bars' positions appear to be at the top (or left if the scroll bar is horizontal). Some mouse software (i.e. the programs that run in the background/in your tray) use this information and do not send scroll up messages to Chrome (since the scroll bars already appear to be at the top).

Mouse software which does not use this information or mouses that do not need software to help them scroll will therefore not be affected. It is possible to patch the mouse software, but it makes more sense to patch/fix Chrome. This patcher fixes the 'cannot scroll up with certain mouse pads' issue. This version is the first release on CNET Download.com.

It was easy to download and Install. It fixed the problem right away and I did not have to do anything else after running the program. The download was very small so it really didn't matter how fast my internet connection was. It was also free!!!

There was no negatives of this program that I can think of.
Summary
It worked like it said it would and that is all you can ask for. I have not had problems with Google Chrome since installing this patch. It was such a simple process that there is not much more to say. I recommend anyone who is not able to scroll up in Google Chrome to install this patch. You won't regret the decision. Thanks for fixing my problem. The outcome was the best I could hope for. This program really delivered.
It does what it says. Very Useful.
