    Click the "Reset All" button located at the bottom of the Options > Controls menu. Then try to bind your controls again.

    A simple reinstall of the game will not reset your settings, mods, etc. This is why I've suggested to reset the controls first.

    If you haven't already, try the slower but safer route of a clean reinstall.

    If you have already tried that and it didn't work, please send a support report.

    The support report came up almost empty. This means that some external software is prohibiting BeamNG.drive access to write files (such as your control settings).

    Make sure you configure all such possible external programs (such as antivirus programs) to allow BeamNG.drive to write wherever it needs.

    Look for anything that looks like an antivirus in your task bar.

    I'm afraid I cannot guess what is wrong in your computer that prevents BeamNG.drive from writing files. Try fully deleting your beamng user folder, try disabling any cloud sync services you may have affecting the beamng user folder (e.g. dropbox, onedrive, etc), try a Windows system restore, try formatting and reinstalling Windows itself from scratch, etc.
