It does the same to me, and updating and repairing doesn't fix it. Guess I'll quit using Edge.
Are other people experiencing Edge browser abruptly moving through Facebook feed website without user interaction

While scrolling through Facebook feed website, Edge abruptly begins flashing posts like a fast slideshow and the slidebar on right hand side goes up and down without user interaction This anomaly started after most recent upgraded of Edge; I have Version 145.0.3800.65 (Official build) (64-bit).
Also, while I am scrolling the Facebook feed website, the scroll response does not move across all postings, but rather skips across postings.

2026-02-20T16:21:00.4133333+00:00 My apologies and please try the repair option. If the issue still persist, it is also highly suggested to send a feedback to the team that is working on Edge for them to be aware of this and hopefully a fix will be applied soon on the next update and you can provide a feedback from the browser itself by clicking on the 3 dots > Help and feedback > Send feedback.

2026-02-21T02:26:47.4133333+00:00 UPDATE: After the "repair" action and a "cold start", the erratic behavior appears to be corrected. However, my Edge version is now Version 145.0.3800.70 (Official build) (64-bit); and Edge is no longer "sluggish", all apps seem to be more responsive. Did the update to Edge version occur because of the "repair" action and / or is the corrected performance due to a download or a rebuild of Edge?
Thanks for hanging in here with me; I had the opportunity to perform a Repair on Edge, I think the repair worked - it downloaded and installed, it didn't shut-down Edge it seemed to do the repair in place - all tabs I had active before the repair were still active after the repair. I ran a couple of tests and the erratic behavior persists. I think I'll shut down everything and upon a cold start, check for any difference in behavior. I'll get back to you after the cold start, probably tomorrow morning. If there is still an issue, I'll follow your suggestion to provide feedback. I very much appreciate your time and expertise.

2026-02-19T13:54:52.5033333+00:00 Hello, good day and thanks for your question. To add to the above, is it the same even if you try to do a reset via edge://settings/reset? Please try to do a repair as well by going to or pressing Windows key + I > Apps > Installed apps > look for Microsoft Edge and then click on the three dots on click on Modify and then click on Repair. Another thing that you can check and test is to download and install separate builds of Beta, Canary or Dev to see if the issue will also be replicated from there.

2026-02-20T13:07:57.2466667+00:00 Thank you for possible solutions, I tried the Edge settings reset, I did not observe any difference in the erratic behavior. I might caution others who think about resetting Edge settings - if you visit sites that save "secure access info in cookies"; you will likely have to go through verification again the next time you sign-in.
I will try the repair action and let you know the results.
