Cannot aim at all.

I submitted a bug report a while ago on the Titanfall 2 forums concerning this issue, but when I get into a multiplayer game (haven't tested on singleplayer) I can't aim at all. My cursor appears in the middle of the screen locked in place. I can ADS, shoot, jump, move and everything, I just can't manipulate my view. Here's the exact report I put in the forums:

Spoiler
Platform: PC
Issue: I can't aim at all. My cursor locks into the middle of the screen and I can't manipulate my player view in any way. This is game breaking. I cannot play the game at all.

Reproduce: I have entered three games now and all of them have seen this issue.

How to reproduce the issue: I don't know. Previously I thought it was due to alt+tabbing, but I restarted Titanfall 2 and the issue happened again.

Specs:
Intel Core i7-5700HQ CPU
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965M
16 GB RAM
Windows 10

    @REsaY01451 It sounds like your mouse input isn't being detected. To start, please try unplugging any other peripherals -especially gamepads- then start the game up and check again. You can start a private match so you can test without affecting anyone, if it turns out that this only affects MP. 

    If this is ineffective you can restart your system with a Clean Boot and just launch the game, then try again.

    I don't think that's the problem, but I'll try. I never had a problem with this before, it's only recent. I can interact with menus and everything, it's just manipulating my view. I'll report back with the results of a clean boot.

    Hey, was there any change? It's certainly an odd issue and hopefully the CB helped. 

    If the issue persists, can you think of any hardware changes that were made about the time that the issue started to manifest?

    Thanks.

    Took me a bit, but I just tested it tonight. I just clean booted and the game works properly. Something's taking over my mouse input and I need to find out what it is. When I get into a game the Windows "loading circle" takes the cursor's place, so something must be trying to execute. I don't know what it is though, and I'm not sure how to find out either.

    Alright, I re-enabled everything except things I didn't recognize or thought might have been the culprit, and it seems to have worked. Thank you for the help. :D
