Android studio - Typing text in the editor searches the editor

Question

When I type something in the editor where code is typed, it goes to the search(ctrl+F) bar. When I click anywhere on the editor, instead of cursor appearing the entire text is selected or the line is selected if the line is empty.

It works if I restart it , but happens again. Please help. I don't want to spend most of my programming life restarting android studio.

Just give a chance may help you,

Try to make it default : reset Android Studio

On Windows:

Go to your User Folder - on Windows 7/8 this would be:

[SYSDRIVE]:\\Users\\[your username] (ex. C:\\Users\\Amit)

In this folder there should be a folder called .AndroidStudioBeta or .AndroidStudio

Delete this folder (take backup of folder).
