Hello, I'm running Leo 6.2.1 from the sources on a Windows 10 laptop and I have the same problem as Viktor: abbreviations don't work for me. In my case I'm using a Spanish keyboard. Cloning nodes with CTRL+` fails too. When I change the keyboard layout to English everything works fine. Back to Spanish layout and abreviations fail again. Hope this information helps.
