   Hi @ChargerMc
   Thanks for filing the issue, I can reproduce it on Windows (not on macOS), the right-shift key is acting as CAPS lock on the dev and master

   code sample

   import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
   
   void main() => runApp(MyApp());
   
   class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
     @override
     Widget build(BuildContext context) {
       return MaterialApp(
         title: 'Material App',
         theme: ThemeData.dark(),
         home: Home(),
       );
     }
   }
   
   class Home extends StatelessWidget {
     @override
     Widget build(BuildContext context) {
       return Scaffold(
         appBar: AppBar(
           title: Text('Material App Bar'),
         ),
         body: Center(
           child: TextField(
             decoration: InputDecoration(
                 alignLabelWithHint: true,
                 labelText: 'Escribe el mensaje...',
                 hintText: '...',
                 labelStyle: TextStyle(
                     fontSize: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline6.fontSize)),
             maxLines: 8,
             enableInteractiveSelection: true,
             onChanged: (value) {},
           ),
         ),
         floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
           child: Icon(Icons.add),
           onPressed: () {},
         ),
       );
     }
   }

   There is a similar issue in macos. For example when you write CAPITAL LETTERS, you cannot delete the Text if the String ends with a capital one. This happens when using textfield or cupertinotextfield and seems to be a Flutter binding library problem.

   Im still waiting for the team to solve this issue since 4 months ago.

   During testing the above (which works), I reached to a horrible defect. I have a German keyboard, to make a @ sign we have to press ALT-GR+Q key. When I do this, something happens which makes windows completely confused. I'm unable to enter anything after that even in other programs, I need to restart my PC. We tested this behaviour on two different machines, against the flutter stable, beta and dev channel. All show the same problem. Is this part of this defect here, or must I open a new one for that?

   @ChargerMc @Coimbra1984 Neither of your problems is not part of this issue (which I feel bad to hear). Can you check if there are existing issues, and if not, open a new one with reproduction step? Thank you.

    @Coimbra1984 The AltGr issue is probably #78005.

    flutter/engine#25882 should have fixed this issue. Please wait until the engine is rolled into the framework, or wait until the next version.
    Since this is a widespread issue I'm gonna leave this issue open until confirmed by many. In the mean time, you might workaround this issue by wrapping the root of the app with the following widget:

    class ShiftRightFixer extends StatefulWidget {
      ShiftRightFixer({this.child});
      final Widget child;
      @override
      State<StatefulWidget> createState() => _ShiftRightFixerState();
    }
    
    class _ShiftRightFixerState extends State<ShiftRightFixer> {
      final FocusNode focus = FocusNode(skipTraversal: true, canRequestFocus: false);
      @override
      Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return Focus(
          focusNode: focus,
          onKey: (_, RawKeyEvent event) {
            return event.physicalKey == PhysicalKeyboardKey.shiftRight ?
              KeyEventResult.handled : KeyEventResult.ignored;
          },
          child: widget.child,
        );
      }
    }

    Also, my deep apology for leaving this issue for so long and causing widespread inconvenience. Although I have been working on the keyboard system full time, in retrospect this issue could have been resolved earlier. There are both the complexity of the issue as well as the misjudgement on my side. I'll take the blame, but please know that we're reading all the reports and care about experience of Flutter on all platforms.

    This fix worked for me--I wrapped my login screen class in this to fix login issues. Thanks!

    @imariman have written a quick fix (hack) for this bug at this page: #78005 It works! So I published my first Flutter Windows app with this hack. (Now we are waiting for a permanent fix from Flutter team. But it does not matter now.)
