Why am I not able to just delete some text?

[mk7z]

I am just trying to delete some text in a document.

But after I select the text I want to delete and press the key, the text is not deleted.

Instead, I see pop-up boxes about ‘added’ or ‘deleted’ paragraphs, the time when those actions occurred, and other information I am not asking to be displayed.

The text I want to remove has ‘strikethrough’ but I don’t want that, I want it deleted.

Why is this happening?

Did I accidentally hit some strange key combination that changed the ‘mode’ I’m in?

Thanks.

Hello @mk7z

Can you provide a video demonstration of this behavior? Also, please let us know if this is happening with a specific document or any of your documents.

In the meantime, please check if Track Changes mode is enabled or not in Collaboration tab on the main toolbar.
Refer to this article to find more about this feature:

Thanks. Yes, I eventually realized that I must have inadvertently activated a collaboration option and that it was ‘Track changes,’ answering my own question (“Did I accidentally hit some strange key combination that changed the ‘mode’ I’m in?”).
