Cannot scroll up in Google Chrome using certain touch pads

By Burnsie • Sep 26th, 2008 • Category: Windows Vista

I wasn’t able to scroll up using my HP Notebook touchpad in Chrome. I downloaded and installed this patch and it resolved it straight away. (I was using Google Chrome v0.2.149.30 at the time)

The patch is available here: http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/pjt2v07/chrome/ (Thanks to Paul for writing this fix)

Things to note:
You need to run this patch from the folder that contains the file chrome.dll. For me it was located in the following path (On Windows Vista)
C:\Users\<>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application.2.149.30

    I think the best way to deal with the scroll bug is to download the latest version from the trunk. It’s been fixed:
