Search page of Bing automatically jumping to the top of page.
- Mar 14, 2023
So, I switched to Bing a month ago and.. I HAD the same problem, but I just fixed it !
There's a function in a script file triggered when Bing Search is Out of Focus, waiting for 15 seconds, and then Scroll the page to the top.Why ? ... I really don't know ... but, who cares ? 😉
For Tampermonkey addon users on Chrome, Edge, Safari, Opera and Firefox, the simple way is to install a script like this.
Updated version on GreaseFork ! - See at the bottom of this post for the link.

Tampermonkey will say there's an error, saying the variable is not defined, it's normal, don't worry.
Installing Tampermonker and create a new script then pasting my code, is not really difficult if you need a solution.
AwayTimeThreshold defines the waiting time in seconds when the tab is no longer active to scroll up the page. (Default value: 15 seconds)
Some sort of temporary (but for a long time, i think ^^) solution is to set an impossible value to reach to this variable. (2 592 000 seconds = One month.)
I currently use this solution, and it works like a charm ! 😉
I could try to make an extension for Chrome and Edge to simplify the solution, but for now, this is a solution.
Tell me if you need help and share this solution to your friends, co-workers, etc... Thanks !Addon Links:
