Hi
I have recently installed Windows 11
And I have faced this problem
When I use Google Chrome and move the mouse near the scroll, this icon appears
This icon also appears in some programs, such as Photoshop
This icon comes near the scroll and disables scrolling with the mouse roller and you have to press the roller to scroll faster.
How can I disable this feature?

Hi there! It seems like you're having an issue with the scroll icon appearing when you use Google Chrome and other programs in Windows 11. This scroll icon indicates a feature called "Scroll Inactive Windows" which is designed to help users differentiate between active and inactive windows when scrolling. However, it can be disabled if you prefer not to see it.
To disable the scroll icon feature in Windows 11, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the Settings app by clicking on the Start button and then on the gear icon.
2. In the Settings window, click on the "Devices" category.
3. In the left sidebar, select the "Mouse" option.

5. This will open the Mouse Properties dialog box. Go to the "Pointer Options" tab.
6. Under the "Visibility" section, you'll find an option labeled "Display pointer trails". Uncheck this option.
7. Click on the "Apply" button, and then on "OK" to save the changes and close the dialog box.
After disabling the "Display pointer trails" option, the scroll icon should no longer appear when moving the mouse near the scroll in Chrome or other programs.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
