if you had the whole word deleted i don't know how to resolve it. but if
word is deleting letrer by letter you probably have Insert key pressed.
Don't know if this will help you...

It sound like you are in Overtype mode rather than Insert. If you see
the letters "OVR" in bold on your status bar then you are in Overtype
mode. Press your Insert key to toggle the mode back to Insert.
