Short description of error

The first letter of Chinese will always be repeated after typing it !

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

The steps of adding input method in Windows 10

Press Ctrl+i to enter settings in Windows 10, and then type (language settings) in the search bar.
And then follow the pictures below.

To reproduce the typing problems, you can press Win+Space to switch input method to Chinese Simplified.

After that, you can try to type anything you want in blender in any areas, then you will see the problems occur.

NOTE: Please also remember to switch the language preference in blender to Chinese too, because after i try a few times, I realise that I cannot even type Chinese in English language preference.

Thanks for steps.

I am afraid that I can't reproduce this issue though. I pressed F3 then "a" and I get this:

Hey Richard Antalik, Thanks for your help anw. May i ask you what is the version of your Win10? My current version is listed below.

As I know, after updating to Win10 2004, the input method UI is not the one you provided from the picture, and I currently don't have a old version PC to test that , so i guess maybe the problem is caused by the new Microsoft Input Method .

Thanks for your patience in advance >_<

I tested Japanese input and fond the same problem:
{F9027189}(but I haven't found alike bug report about Japanese input)
And after some looking up I suspected that it's the compatibility error of the input method.Then I tried anthoer Chinese input method and received even worse situation:
{F9027194}(inputing)
{F9027199}(It doubled the whole strip,while the Microsoft Chnise input method only doubled the first letter)
The above is what I have tested so far,and here is my OS build info and the specific input methond I'm using:
{F9027245}(OS info)
{F9027284}(languages I installed)
{F9027254}(the Chinese method with the specific keyborad,the other keyborad "Microsoft Wubi"has same problem)
{F9027256}(the Japanese method with the specific keyborad)
