Minecraft survival commands like /kick or /w can't find the targeted player, even when you wrote the target correctly it still doesn't work

Here an example

Steps to Reproduce:
Type /kick <player> in chat and run it

Observed Results:

No targets matched selector

Could not find player <player>

Syntax error: Unexpected "%2$s": at "%1$s>>%2$s<<%3$s"

(Syntax error appears in some commands, like for example for /w it doesnt show and only tells that no targets matched selector)

Expected Results:

Player gets kicked from the world/ realm/ server
