Mouse wheel scrolling still does not work in Chrome

Reported by scottroh...@gmail.com, Sep 28 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version       : 61.0.3163.100
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
  Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
     Safari 5:
  Firefox 4.x:
     IE 7/8/9:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ONLY some pages (30% of pages I visit) in Chrome, not ff or safari
2. mouse over scroll bar works, but not desired
3. 

What is the expected result?
Able to use mouse-wheel to scroll up and down within center of page

What happens instead of that?
page does not recognize mouse wheel use unless I move mouse over the scroll bar on right side of screen

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.  With all due respect, I think this has been going on since ver 57

Reporter, try completely exiting Chrome and running it via the following command line:
chrome --disable-blink-features=ScrollTopLeftInterop
If scrolling starts to work, see  issue 769341 .
ty for your help... see screen shot... does not like saying "unsupported
command-line flag:" as I start up  Screen shot here:

Thank you for trying... as I have spent four hours reviewing posts back to
2014 during publish 57 on this... I tried what you suggested... please see
the error message recived in the screen shot below:

YOu will see that it says I am using an unsupported command line flag...
version as noted from before is Version 61.0.3163.100 (Official Build)

The warning may be ignored, it's as expected.
What about the scrolling behavior?
Scrolling still does not work on certain sites, which brings me to this
(and I apologize in advance as Im a newb) but could this be an issue
relating to situations where "div id" in footers or headers that are called
in separately and there is too much of a delay for the code and scrolling
to keep up?  I'm sorry I'm not so smart but that's the best description I
can give after 4 hours of reading MANY posts referring to this only
occuring in chrome, as it does not happen in my other browsers on the same
sites I find issue in. (most respectfully said, with appreciation)
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry.... YES that command line correct... I
will go back and re-read your message
I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Sorry...... yes that command line then allows the
scrolling to WORK PROPERLY.

I will go back and re-read your prior post with that command line and
additional article

So this was caused by ScrollTopLeftInterop, which means those sites use outdated JavaScript (jQuery scroll plugin). Can you post some of the affected URLs? 
I do not want to post a bunch of sites publicly that I am aware of, but as you so kindly pointed out in the referenced 769341 issue it likely relates to many wordpress themes sold by TemplateMonster.com.

I took the advice given in the other referenced issue, and this guy who sometimes regrets he chose economics over coding spent the last 8h ours of a 17 hour day to find that line referenced.  Once removed it resolved the issue.  Thank you for your familiarity with this seemingly known item/issue.

agreed, and thank you all for attention and advice for the work-around I employed and tolerating my juvenile description of my problem.  No doubt you all help so many without their realizing by helping put a good product out there (most respectfully said)
