There is no need to evaluate another term in your conditional, you can simply use an else clause as the only other state "IsActive" could be in is true.

If you had read up on the documentation for UserInputService's UserInputType property, you would've recognized that its purpose is to describe the type of Input being received; most Enums are organized to be compaired with an identical property name, which is also another indicator of a conflicting expression.

You're looking for the KeyCode property of InputObject:

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")


UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(InputObject, GameProcessedInput)
	if (GameProcessedInput) then return end
	---------------
	if (InputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.M) then
		print("Pressed M!")
	end
end)
