ESCAPE Key not working (REVIT 2023)

Escape key does not work and I literally had to right click and cancel when placing components. I tried restarting and the problem still persists. My keyboard is okay so that had to be ruled out.

I am having the same issue, along with the delete key doing the same thing. On the system keyboard and wireless keyboard. It is a big pain!

Hi Jay, I already tried all of them. Restarting my computer is the only solution that has ever worked for me for each version of revit we are using. (Revit 2021, 2023 and 2024)

All of those version appears to be affected by this problem.
All of these functions does not work altogether.
ESC
Delete
CTRL+C
CTRL+V
CTRL+X

I dont know if someone encountered more functions that has been disabled. But for me, restarting my computer is the only way but I dont do these often as opening my model takes alot of time and effort.
