I tried everything that I know to do but for some reason, out of nowhere, my deselect all "a" key will not deselect. I have to Shift+B to deselect all. I have a brand new computer and the deselect was working fine last week. I tried loading the factory settings from the file menu but same thing. I do not know anything about scripting so I wouldn't know where to begin. Any help is appreciated.

  • $\begingroup$ Have you checked into the Preferences > Input > 3D View > Object Mode > (De)select All, and change the shortcut back to A if it's not, then Save User Settings $\endgroup$ – moonboots Aug 4 '18 at 16:11
  • $\begingroup$ Yes, it is labeld as A as well as double click. I didn't know about the double click but the "a" still does not deselect $\endgroup$ – Nick Aug 4 '18 at 17:39
  • $\begingroup$ What version of Blender? Where do you install it from? Also did you check the A key works in other programs? $\endgroup$ – Mr Zak Aug 4 '18 at 20:14
  • $\begingroup$ Are you using an off-brand version of blender, such as "blender for artists" or the included maya/max layouts? $\endgroup$ – Kirbinator Aug 4 '18 at 23:06

    $\begingroup$ Have you installed any addons, updated drivers in last week. Does this happen in default file after "Restore Factory Settings"? $\endgroup$ – batFINGER Aug 5 '18 at 7:29

Uninstall The Blender 2.79b Then Reinstall It . If the problem still occurs try installing the blender 2.79a version of it. HAPPY BLENDING

  • $\begingroup$ ... and if the problem still occurs? Reinstalling software IMO should be a last resort workaround. $\endgroup$ – batFINGER Aug 5 '18 at 7:30
