PyCharm Window loses focus and reactivates when typing text
Answered
This must be the most frustrating bug I've ever encountered:
When I type code, the window loses focus and the stuff I type is not entered into the file, then it gets focus again, but then it loses it, multiple times a second. So 5 keystrokes register, then 5 do not register, and so on. I tried reinstalling while deleting all caches and settings, no change.

It seems to be linked somehow to a faulty python environment which includes conda. After completely removing the virtualenv and setting it up again the error is gone. This should still not happen though!
Thank you for the update. Could you please contact pycharm-support@jetbrains.com and attach your idea.log (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241085-Locating-IDE-log-files) to the e-mail? Thank you in advance.
I am having the same issue. Were you able to figure out the cause ? and a solution ?

I donot use conda.
I have a py3 virtualenv setup using virtualenvwrapper from scratch.
I mean, you can try creating a new venv, but it seems it's a different problem for you. Maybe contact the support, I can't help you.
Maybe re-install python3 all together
