Nope.
You have a customised setting somewhere making backspace behave like the tab button.
that is wrong and going to cause other problems.. if you do not know how or where you have set it then re-install manjaro.

If at first you don't succeed , try doing something differently.

Re: keyboard alllways activ, even not programmed
Hello all, I feel a bit stupid about this topic, because I told you that I used key.backspase but I found out I wasn't, in fact I wanted the key.SPACE and of course I was pushing the wrong button all the time ...
So I changed it into:
I finally checked my code, didn't find any errors, but rearranged some functions and suddenly everything was OK.
I have no idea what code was causing the error.
So please forgive me for wasting your time
So I changed it into:
Public Sub Form_KeyPress()
If Button3.Visible = True Then
If Key.Code = Key.Space Then
firstControl = Int(Rnd(6, 180))
Button3.Visible = False
Label7.Text += 1
End If
End If
End
but again, tapping the Space key also made my pc doing strange things.I finally checked my code, didn't find any errors, but rearranged some functions and suddenly everything was OK.
I have no idea what code was causing the error.
So please forgive me for wasting your time

I should add this...
Keypress event is strange.
QT and GTK behave quite differently.
GTK will show warnings about not allowing some methods while in a keypress event while QT seems not to.
There's probably pro's and con's for both gui's.
It can help to rearrange the code as you have done or changing to QT can sometimes help.
bigger problems can be fixed by making Timers, so the keypress event just starts a timer then freely exits, then the timer runs the process.
There's possibly a better way to get around it.
Also it can make a difference if for example your keypress events are from a TextArea control,
Using TextArea1_KeyPress() or using From_KeyPress() can make things behave differently.
Try different things.
