HELP! Battlefield 1 can't Select ANYTHING with Mouse or Keyboard.

HELP! I still can't select anything with my mouse or keyboard on Battlefield 1. I've uninstalled TWICE now, did a clean boot, deleted certain Origin files, restarted my computer, tried coping files from a DIFFERENT PC that was able to select stuff with mouse and keyboard and NOTHING! EA HELP!!! Everything you've said hasn't worked. It seems to me, that you don't know how to fix this issue. If so JUST SAY SO! PLEASE!

    I fixed it by doing this:

    Go to Computer Management->Services and Applications->Services and find:

    "Touch keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service"

    Stop it, and disable it

    Or:

    Plug in a game controller (for example PS3 controller) to your computer before starting Battflefield 1

    However, after restarting the computer, the keyboard and mouse do not work in the game, even though the service "Touch keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service" is still stopped and disabled. Perhaps when stopping that service it works because something else makes the problem (whatever it is) go way, same when plugging in a game controller (which always works).

    I have installed Battlefield 4 to see if the problem exists in that game too, but it works fine, so the problem is in Battlefield 1. I believe this is a bug that has to be fixed by the developers of Battlefield 1.

    Note to EA: I have tried all things that I have read online and from your support, uninstalling/reinstalling BF/origin, making a "clean boot", disabling settings in origin, removing USB devices and uninstalling their software, using a clean Windows 10 installation, and more things.
