Method 1: Disable Extensions
Disabling or completely uninstalling extensions have worked for quite a few users. This solution is for people who aren’t seeing the scrollbars at all. If you are one of those users who is seeing the scroll bar but simply doesn’t like the auto-hide feature then skip this method and follow the step given in method 2. This step ensures that there are no extensions hindering the operation of the scrollbar. For users who can’t see the scroll bar in Google Chrome, follow the steps given below Once done, reboot the browser and check if the problem is resolved or not. If the problem is gone and you want to enable the extensions then repeat the steps given above until step 2. Once you see the extension page, Toggle on one of the extensions. Reboot the browser and check if the problem is back or not. Repeat this process for every extension. If enabling an extension brings back the problem then you’ll know which extension was the culprit behind this. You can remove that specific extension and enable all the other extensions.
Method 2: Disable Overlay-scrollbar Flag (For Older Chrome Versions)
Update: This flag was removed by Google in recent Chrome updates. Users cannot access this flag unless they are running an older version of Google Chrome. If you are one of those users who is just annoyed by the auto-hide scrollbar or method 1 didn’t work then this method might help you. In this solution, we will simply disable a certain flag from Google Chrome. This flag enables an experimental overlay scrollbar implementation. Since this option is still experimental, enabling it might have been causing this issue (or annoyance). Simply disabling it will help you get rid of the issue. This should rectify the issue for you.
