Apart from what Ton already mentioned, keep in mind that this behaviour sometimes just occurs out of the blue, although all keys are intact. Also, depending on what international Illustrator version and what keyboard layout you are using, the default key that intentionally triggers the behaviour may differ.

 

In case it happens out of the blue, it almost always helps to close and reopen the actual document and / or restart Illustrator.
