Question My windows scrolling was just fine and smooth until this evening all of a sudden it started scrolling in jumps like if it were refreshing the whole page in every scroll button step.

Instead, I see the NEXT field, say of a webpage or of a document I'm viewing, three lines below or above the previous one, placed above the previous view.
