The main reason is this script with a timer, but sometimes it can also happen because of problems with the cache or browser add-ons messing with the page. In this article, we will discuss different ways to solve this error.
1. Try basic troubleshooting steps
Before trying complicated fixes, it’s best to check for simple problems first. Things like a browser glitch or old cache can cause issues. Try refreshing the page, clearing cookies, turning off extensions, or using a different browser. These easy steps can help find out if Bing’s auto-scroll is caused by a temporary problem.
2. Review Microsoft Edge Settings
Sometimes, features in Edge like page preloading or startup settings can mess with how Bing loads. Checking and changing these options can help stop the page from refreshing or scrolling to the top by itself when the tab is in the background.
3. Clear your Browsing Data
Corrupted cache or outdated site data can cause Bing to misbehave, including triggering auto-scroll scripts unnecessarily. Clearing your browsing data removes these conflicts and ensures the search page loads with fresh, unmodified settings.

4. Reset your Browser Settings
If there are hidden changes or settings in your browser making Bing act up, resetting the browser puts everything back to normal. This can fix problems, like the page scrolling to the top by itself.
