Is the problem that you are typing and each letter removes the following letter? Or is pressing delete deleting the wrong thing?

I have no problems with typing, I have problem with delete button. when I write text and trying to delete it, nothing is happening, when I move the mouse cursor from end of the text to beginning, it deteles the following text. Perhabs it's a norm, maybe I only right now noticed that, because all the time was deleting texts with backspace..

Please report me whether it is a disconfiguration or standart.

You say your fn key is borked in the picture.  Is it possible it's acting like it's being held down?  Fn+Delete (when using the key that's where the backspace typically is) causes text to be deleted to the right of the cursor, rather than to the left.  It's intended for keyboards that don't have the other delete key, but I don't see anything that says it's otherwise disabled on keyboards that have one.

Don't pay attention for that, I just took picture from internet to show where insert locates in mac keyboard. I tried Fn+Delete just, nothing changed, as I said, perhabs it's a standart, how your keyboard act when you press delete?

When I press delete, it deletes characters to the right of the cursor.  When I press backspace, it deletes to the left.  But I have a traditional keyboard.

Same thing I facing with.. but for more clarification, say, do you able to delete text with delete button when the mouse cursor is set to the end of the text?

[MrDrWho13]

Are you using the right delete button?

Red will delete the character to the left of the cursor, blue will delete the character to the right of the cursor.

That's right, I thought that they both should delete only to the left side of the cursor..  thanks for clarification
