    I really don't know where to post this because it's such a weird bug, but here's my issue: My "e" keystroke stopped working, and I don't mean my physical keyboard broke, because even using the on screen keyboard clicking "e" doesn't work, and what is stranger is it will work if I press SHIFT E...
