I'm building a Flutter Application for Windows. I have a TextField and if I run the Application and want to insert an uppercase Character by holding Shift Left or Shift Right and than a letter, I get the following Error:
The following assertion was thrown during a platform message callback:
A KeyRepeatEvent is dispatched, but the state shows that the physical key is not pressed. If this occurs in real application, please report this bug to Flutter. If this occurs in unit tests, please ensure that simulated events follow Flutter's event model as documented in `HardwareKeyboard`. This was the event: KeyRepeatEvent#d843e(physicalKey: PhysicalKeyboardKey#700e1(usbHidUsage: "0x000700e1", debugName: "Shift Left"), logicalKey: LogicalKeyboardKey#00102(keyId: "0x200000102", keyLabel: "Shift Left", debugName: "Shift Left"), character: null, timeStamp: 124:45:14.849439)
'package:flutter/src/services/hardware_keyboard.dart':
Failed assertion: line 432 pos 16: '_pressedKeys.containsKey(event.physicalKey)'
Either the assertion indicates an error in the framework itself, or we should provide substantially more information in this error message to help you determine and fix the underlying cause.
In either case, please report this assertion by filing a bug on GitHub:

By pressing Caps Lock and than a letter, I don't get this error. It seems like Flutter can't handle the combination of Shift and a letter.
Does someone know why that it is? And how to solve that?

Okay, I was reading in some other Forums and Git Issues that that is fixed on the master channel.
So I switched from stable channel to master channel and I don't get this error any more.
To do that you have to run:
flutter channel master
flutter upgrade
