I'd try resetting preferences: 

Have After Effects closed then:

Press Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) while launching After Effects. You can release the Alt or Option key when the splash screen appears.

To reset preferences and plug-in cache at the same time, hold down Control-Shift-Alt (Windows) or Command-Shift-Option (Mac OS) while the application is starting. Release the keys when the splash screen appears.

    Check your language preferences and reset the character panle. You may inadvertently have enabled RTL typing or chosen a wrong default language.
