Weird RenPy Behaviour

Well, recently every game I've tried gives me a weird bug. When I put my cursor over something clickable it blinks non-stop. It's a bit uncomfortable but nothing that can affect the overall experience. The problem is that the Enter key never works in these games. So when I have to write MC name or things like that, I can't get pass it.

I updated my GPU drivers to the last update and restarted the PC. Still the same.

What could this be?

Thanks.

Last one was power vacuum. Actually, there's more to the issue.

Enter works until you need to confirm an input. Then it opens the history panel...
Also, I installed renpy to test some things and I'm getting the same blinking (which makes really difficult to know if you are clicking the right thing) in there.

This is driving me kinda crazy now xd.

do have any controllers plugged in that might be the cause?
do you have all your drivers updated?

I'm not grumpy, I'm just coded that way.

Go to the main directory of the game, where there's the "exe" and/or "sh" files. After you ran the game at least once, there's a file named "log.txt" here, and its third line give you the version of Ren'py.

Are all the games that cause you problems having the same version ?

This!!! It was a Xbox controller! I feel kinda silly now xD.

At first I thought it was a graphics renderer conflict since I updated my renpy recently from 7.3.x and there are some display problems between version.

Thank you good sir.
