Using the left and right arrows sends you to the address box
Build 75.0.141.0
1- Go to techcommunity.microsoft.com and start a conversation
2- Type some text
3- Use the left arrow to go back a few spaces or use the right arrow
4- Result: your cursor is kicked to the address box with all the text selected or to the lock icon if you used the right arrow
1- Go to Youtube.com
2- Launch a video
3- Press the space bar to stop the video
4- Use the left arrow or right arrow to rewind or go forward in the video
5- Result: your cursor is kicked to the address box with all the text selected or to the lock icon if you used the right arrow
1- Go to any web site
2- Press the left or right arrow just for the fun of it
3- Result: your cursor appears in the address box with all the text selected or on the lock icon
Might I suggest that you make this bug a priority as the left arrow is used quite frequently.

Version 76.0.141.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
I updated to 76.0.144.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) this afternoon and it looks like it is fixed.
Scott Hoag Yes, it does. And the LastPass bug (LastPass being unable to connect to its servers) seems to have been fixed as well.
Hello NicolSD,
Yes, you understand me :)
- I would suggest you to use j, l keys which are officially supported by youtube also k for play pause and many more shortcuts are present
varadkulk That's the ten second seek shortcut. The right shift and the arrow keys work better for me for a five second jump. Also, the spacebar works to play and pause the video.
Any website with a form has this bug too. Even filling in this description won't let me use arrow keys to go back and forth.
- Until its getting fixed you can use shift+arrows for youtube as a workaround :)
Happening to me as well. Very annoying.
Repro'd here, too. Perhaps they're playing with caret browsing.
NicolSD Yeah. Me too. Really annoying, but it is canary. Hopefully, they get it fixed.
By the way, the right arrow sends you to the lock icon next to the address bar.
NicolSD Oh. Did not notice that.
Alexei_Drekker I realize that. It just a very annoying bug because we use the keyboard arrows all the time in a browser.
