Win7 Scrollbars: Restore Windows 7 Native Appearance to Chrome Scrollbars
Win7 Scrollbars is a Chrome extension developed by Five4 that allows users to restore the native appearance of Windows 7 scrollbars in the Chrome browser.
With newer versions of Chrome, the default scrollbars have been redesigned, eliminating features such as the arrow buttons. This extension brings back the familiar Windows 7 scrollbars, including the arrow buttons, giving users a more familiar and comfortable browsing experience.
One of the key advantages of Win7 Scrollbars is that it does not access any user data or track user activity. Implemented purely in CSS, the extension operates entirely locally on the user's computer, making it a safe and privacy-conscious choice.
However, it's important to note that Win7 Scrollbars does not work with drop-down menus or certain URLs starting with chrome://. Additionally, it is not compatible with Chrome's built-in PDF viewer or developer tools. Users can enable the extension to work with file:// URLs and in Chrome's incognito mode by adjusting the settings in the Chrome menu.
Overall, Win7 Scrollbars is a useful Chrome extension for those who prefer the native Windows 7 scrollbars and desire a more familiar browsing experience in Chrome.
