Originally created by @ghost on GitHub (Apr 4, 2023).

With Windows Terminal v1.12.1073, the scrollbar looks like this:

good

however starting with the next version, Windows Terminal v1.12.1098, the scrollbar is narrow:

bad

and in future versions even rounded at the corners. I find these changes distracting. Also, they are different from my browser Mozilla Firefox:

firefox

My editor Vim:

vim

and even Windows Explorer:

explorer

does Windows Terminal have some option to restore the scrollbar to full width? otherwise I will be forced to use the old version forever.
