Anytime I type text, the written text gets deleted or overwritten at times. I have pressed the insert key to no avail. Is there any other solution available?

Insert can be finicky. Can you turn overwrite on and off in other programs with the Insert key?

Does the issue persist in Firefox's Safe Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#w_how-to-start-firefox-in-safe-mode
