Do you per chance have "vim_mode": true in your settings.json file?

[ErrolFernandes]

Yes

[Moshyfawn]

So you are in Vim NORMAL mode, where you can jump around in the code, but you can't edit it - hence the delete button doesn't work. When you press i, you are in INSERT mode, where you can edit the text.

If you accidentally switched on the Vim mode, you can switch it off by setting "vim_mode": false or by deleting the line completely.

Oh thankyou very much.

No problem! I'm going to close this issue because it's working as intended, but feel free to ask if you still have any questions.
