Why can't i scroll up in the console? There is no way for me to see everything that was printed out. For some reason my console won't allow me to scroll up to it

In the Treehouse console, I don't see any arrows appear as you progress through the console. However I was able to use two fingers up and down with my cursor pointed inside the console, to page up & down. After doing some research, it appears this is a common problem that people have experienced. Commonly with users that have been using Windows. If the error persists, I would recommend just using Terminal, Command Line or possibly an alternate browser. There are quite a bit of posts similar to yours that I found. Unfortunately I was unable to find any with a solution to the problem.

10,101 PointsThx for you response
When I press the arrow to go up, the cursor doesn't move up. It just changes to the last command I made.
The only options under view are: "Hide Sidebar," "Hide Console," "Increase Font-Size," "Decrease Font-Size," "Restore Font-Size," "Show in File Tree," "Highlight Active Line," "Line Numbers," "Word Wrap," "Indent Guidelines," and "Quick View on Hover."
So, I'm still lost...

8,743 PointsSame issue, no scroll bar appears, it scrolls way too fast, and when I clear out past console commands they reappear when executing a new command. It makes this console very difficult to work with. Need an option to expand the console or to move up the console results line by line.
