@espenbjorkeng I reset it again and found that it works properly now. Not sure what happened. Thanks.

Hey @ EryouHao may I know what you mean by reset here? (I am experiencing the same issue).

Is this character something you're seeing in VS Code only, or any text editor when you press alt + i?

it's the normal mapping for option + i on mac:

I guess I'll just map alt+o to up... lol
