Zorin 9 scroll width and no arrows??

Hi,

Just Installed Zorin 9 core after trying Zorin 8, and now I do not have any scroll arrows when using Firefox browser. also the scroll bar is so narrow it is difficult to get on it to even drag it.
Very annoying... otherwise I have been quite pleased being a first time Linux user. Google chrome browser has scroll arrows, but I prefer using Firefox if I can resolve the scroll problem.

Thanks for any help I may get with this,

Chuck

Hopefully this isn't considered hijacking...

Will the fix in the link also work for the Terminal?

I tested this to make sure it works.

here is something you should be able to copy and paste into terminal
Code:
echo -e 'style "scroll"\n{\n\tGtkScrollbar::slider-width = 10\n}\nclass "*" style "scroll"' > .gtkrc-2.0


Exit and restart you application. You can change the 10 to w/e you would like. Default is 5 I think.

Hope this helps.
