Keyboard keys not working in Flight Sim 2020

Hi. 

After flying with FS2020 for some days. Suddenly, under mid-flight, all the keybords controlls stopped working on the plane. Throttle, flaps and steering control stopped working. And the plane crashed. 

Tried a new flight. The plane just started with full throttle on the run-way. Not able to reduce the throttle, or the flaps. Not able to steer the plane in any directions. 

This goes for all flights made from "World Map". If I try one of the challanges, the keyboard and plane is working perfectly. But when I go back to the custom flight the plane just live it life on it ownes. 

I re-installed Windows on a newly bought disk, and then installed FS2020 on the same disk. Just to be sure that nothing was hiding in hidden files or registry. Same problem with the custom made flight.

I also registered that all my previous settings was still in FS2020. The latest airports I have used was on my list. Now I am suspecting FS to store this information on the Microsoft account / gaming account`? Since I have sorted out that this is not hardware related (keyboard or PC). Since the controlls of the plane are working in when flying challanges. 

thanks!

Now I found a solution for it. 

It had something to do with the servers i was connected to. It was on "Automatic - West Europe". Changed it to North-Europe, and then the keyboard controls was working again.
