How to Remove Those Scroll Bars

(No Ratings Yet)

Loading ...

Scrolls bars take up a lot screen space and really aren’t necessary if you know your device well. CyberBuddah from the forum was smart enough to come up with a way to remove the bars using a registry editor. Here’s how:

Using a registry editor:

Go to: HKLM/System/GWE:

Set the following values

cxHScr=0
cxVScr=0
cyHScr=0
cyVScr=0

And if you don’t want to totally remove the scroll bars, but thin them out a bit, you can set these values:

cxVScr=3 (original 6)
cyHScr=3 (original 6)
