Since the 1.21.123 hotfix I’ve been unable to use my keyboard for anything other than moving in game. Opening the chat menu locks my PC keyboard entirely, can’t type on signs, can’t type in the crafting menu - only moving works, nothing which needs proper typing works.
There was an issue before the hotfix which affected when the game acknowledged typing, and it meant clicking in and out of the window to get it to register. The hotfix fully broke all text input functionality.
Already done a clean reinstall, and know it’s not my set-up because when remote accessing Minecraft on another PC, the keyboard works perfectly
Parts of the game now unplayable, and unable to communicate in-game.
Thank you for your report!
