Is the cursor a larger block than usual? Just to check have you tried pressing the insert key to turn this off? Have you tried toggling the Ins key?
You can switch between insert typing mode and overwrite typing mode by pressing the keyboard key labeled “Ins” or “Insert”.
With the keyboard, press Insert to toggle between overwrite mode and insert mode. In insert mode, any text after the cursor position moves forward to make room for the text you type; in overwrite mode, text after the cursor position is replaced by the text you type.
