Yes, I'm back with a very odd situation. I cannot type a message in Gmail. When I start to type, the first few letters do not appear. Ahead of the cursor are miscellaneous words and letters. Deleting, starting in a different location or with a different font makes no difference.
I can type just fine in the subject line, and I can type anywhere else - word processor, Quicken, UHH, etc. I connected the wired keyboard to different USB ports, but that made no difference. I was able to send an email by typing the message in WordPerfect and pasting it into the email.
I just tried it again, and "At home" appeared after the cursor. I don't recall typing those words recently.
I just typed, "I want to find a way to make this work." This is what I got: "t to find a way to make this work.on And in"
I can reply to an email, but I cannot type one of my own.

Been there, done that. I'll let it rest overnight and see if that helps. 😋
Clear the cache. Don’t remember how to do it on a Windows machine, but someone will chime in.

Works on another computer? Start with that. How about in another browser? What do you have installed on your machine?
