Space bar not working

I just updated to Mac OS Monterey and every time I want to use the space bar it select something instead of adding a space. Is there anyway I can turn off that blue selection box? and how could I fixed that problem. Because sometimes I have to press shift + space bar to add a space.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.0
