Wrong action with switch tab shortcut using right ctrl button - google-chrome

I want to switch tabs with the Ctrl+Page Up/Down shortcuts on Chrome (using the latest version). It always works correctly when I use the left Ctrl button, but with the right Ctrl button, it only works properly on some days. When it doesn't, it becomes page up/down instead of correctly being next/previous tab. I usually browse tabs for the same few sites, so I don't think it's due to the websites. I'm not sure what causes this. Is this supposed to be happening? How can I make the shortcut always work when using right Ctrl?
Edit: Found that it's basically any "ctrl+" shortcuts and not just next/previous tab. Also, I changed my keyboard recently, but this problem has existed since my old keyboard which I've used for 4 or more years, over at least two different computers, and Chrome is the only browser I use so I don't know if this problem will still exist if I switch browsers.

Your right ctrl button is not working properly (hardware problem). Maybe it's damaged or somewhat.
Some pages maybe does not alove that shortcut's. I'm saying this because i found that on some pages, and my shortcut's doesn't work on them.
I don't see other posible solutions for that.

Html input of type "file" freeze the browser sometimes

i'm struggling with the classic HTML input of type file. I was using it on my angular application and i had freeze sometimes, the whole browser became unresponsive, and the only thing that works is the scroll.
You can't click any buttons, select any text or even change tab on the browser for about 5 seconds. I tried a lot of different file type and sizes and it doesn't change any of this, it even freeze sometimes when i don't select any file in the explorer and i click the close button directly.
So I thought it was my implementation that was bad and i went to the Mozilla developper website where you have an example and I have exactly the same behaviour. I also tried to take only the HTML from the Mozilla website and put it alone on a .html file and again, same behaviour.
This does not occur 100% of the time, but I would argue that on my end it does it about 60/70 % of the times.
I tried it on chrome and Firefox (both up to date), on multiple computer (all running Windows though) and i have the same behaviour on all of them.
I don't have any error or anyting in the consoles.
I don't know what to do with this, i'm pretty sure it can't be the file's input on the whole web that are bugged, but i tried a lot of various things with always the same results. Should i report it somewhere? ( if so, where? ) Or what would you suggest to do to investigate this further?
I couldn't find anyone discussing this issue on the internet apart for this thread that had no solution, they also say in this thread that the bug is not reproducible in Edge, but i just tried and it does the same thing.
Thanks for reading me and for any help about this.
Chrome freezes for few seconds when after any use of file field.
It was because I had a shortcut in "Quick Access" menu in windows explorer. This shortcut has been linked with a folder shared by network. I've removed this shortcut and everything is good now.
Same here, I have a mapped network drive that is not responding, this make a 5 seconds delay. After unmapping the drive, no more delay. The delay is the same in firefox or chrome.
Same here, if you want to remove it, on Windows 10, click on the icon Quick access (blue star), then right click on the dead link appearing in the "Frequent folders" panel on the right panel and choose "Unpin/Remove from Quick access". There should be no error message.

Select a part of the property in chrome inspactor css panel

In one of my PCs when I use inspect tool in chrome, I can't select some part of a property or a value, so I have to retype all the value again. As many times as I click on the selected text, the caret doesn't go to the place I need and the selected text doesn't deselect.
the following picture shows what I want and what happens.
There is no problem in another PC.
Both are windows 10 64bit and google chrome 62.
Try holding shift or control while clicking. Haven't tried it, but it may work. My guess is that it's simply a UX workflow that DevTools doesn't handle well.

ArcMap editor panel window not opening

I have installed ArcMap Desktop 10.5.1 on a new computer and have a problem. I have never experienced with any previous versions of ArcMap.
Pressing the button of the toolbar for the Editor
I can’t access the toolbar.
I also can see that the program notices that I have pressed the button by the ArcMap-window ‘flickering’ and I see the Editor-window that should open for less than a second at some occasions.
I have tried to see if it ends up hidden somewhere, but it does not seems like it.
Printscreen of the ArcMap window with the editor button
Does anyone know what can be the problem and how to handle it?
I have tried to search for answers both at the ESRI help-page, here in stackoverflow and in other broad search engines, but this doesn’t seem to be a common problem.
This problem can have many causes and there are 2 different ways to open the editor toolbar.
Try click Customize > Toolbars > Editor (I will add a pic for it)
Right-click while your mouse on the main menu. The toolbar will be open directly and check the editor. Same solution.
If you have still this problem you must see another reason for the problem.
For example, do you using a second monitor? If you using it maybe the editor toolbar coming from another monitor. Check your monitor/monitors also.
If you still have problems, please write. There is another solution.
However, I am not writing now because it will reset usage of interface.

Chrome Dev Tools - Can't Click On Elements Anymore?

For some reason in the latest versions of Canary (and I reinstalled it a couple times) no longer allows you to change elements in dev tools by clicking on them. The only way I can go through the DOM in the elements tab is with the up and down arrow keys which takes forever.
I can use the magnifying glass to select things, but then can't go further into their children elements without using the arrow key. Clicking on elements does nothing at all.
How to fix?
I was seeing this too... seems devtools can get in a funky state. The solution is to:
open devtools
click the traffic light icon and click Settings
scroll down and click Restore defaults and reload button
This fixed it for me...
I had this issue too. I noticed that although you can't click on the element itself, you can on the white space on the left of it, with the same effect.

Disable back space key for browser based AS3 application

this is insanely annoying problem:
AS3 full screen application based on ADOBE FLEX 4, text field. User types something in text field, and then starts clicking backspace many many times to remove what he just wrote, and for some reason, instead of removing characters from text field it tells browser to GO BACK and user navigates away. Why?! Please, please help, this is so terrible. My users are losing important unsaved this is data while using my application!
i am using safari browser
PLEASE HELP.
Wow, this is terrible, I am so irritated, it happens every single time
It is possible that the focus is lost from your text field when hitting the backspace multiple times (check if you are firing some events on the text field that may cause this), which causes the main window to take focus and trigger 'Back' on the browser.
The root of the problem is that the browser carries out keyboard shortcuts REGARDLESS of the flash app having the focus or not. From what I heard this problem does not exist on Safari's for Mac, only Safari for Windows.
I would check to see what browser you are in and then create a popup saying you this app does NOT work on Safari browser ON windows.
Scratching head*
Well maybe if HAD to solve this, I would use the ExternalInterface to interact with Safari or javascript to PREVENT the history back button from getting applied. So it won't go back to an old page. That is what I would look into.
