Now my e key cannot be pressed on my laptop. It doesn't even send KeyCodes to the Event Viewer. This is not hardware issue since sometimes for some reason it starts sending e's repetitively on the screen. So something is extremely bugged. 

When I use external keyboard, e key starts working but after some time randomly the entire keyboard just goes *crazy* and everything stops working. I am using Launcher mode on every single key (https://github.com/nikitavoloboev/dotfiles/tree/master/karabiner) and I never had this issue before until now. When this happens, every key silly doesn't work or starts sending different signals. Pressing just k, sends command + k or pressing j sends command + j or something similar. I have no idea why that happens.

Also it seems that Karabiner messed up with the macOS kernel or something because even if I quit Karabiner, I still can't use my keyboard key 'e'. Why is that? It is definitely because of Karabiner bit I really wish I can fix this as I can't move to Sierra until Launcher Mode gets added. 

Please mr Tekezo, I hope you can find the time and help me understand what the issue is because right now my laptop is unusable and seems broken. I don't know what to do.

My keyboards are messed up now, seems like something in the OS has been permanently altered because there seems to be no way to resolve the problems. Uninstalling Karabiner-elements didn't do anything

Try unloading the daemon. 

sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.pqrs.karabiner.karabiner_grabber.plist
