Windows 10: Flight Simulator 2020 Controls stop working

I've been playing Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 for a couple weeks and just recently I have come across problems. Every single flight that I take, at some point during the flight all of my controls stop working and my plane plummets into the ground. My cursor disappears and none of my keys work when this happen and it has made the game unplayable. This is only an issue on Flight Simulator and no other games.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020

Hi. I have two questions:

1) I have been using Flight Simulator since its release on Aug 18. Today, I stated the Simulator, it loaded OK, I created a free flight, clicked on Fly, when I tried to use the joystick and keyboard to start and use the simulator, they both did not work
and would not control anything...they were unresponsive. Checked the Controllers section in the Simulator set up section and the keyboard and Thrustmaster M1600 Joystick were listed and the keyboard and joystick action assignments were still there and responded
when I clicked a joystick button and keyboard key....the assignment box in the Controller section responded when I pressed a key or button. Rebooted the computer with no change. Do you have any suggestions?

2) How do I uninstall and reinstall MSFS 2020 in the event that is the only way to fix this problem? Please provide instructions and where to download the MSFS 2020 Premium Deluxe Edition from.

Thank you...Malcolm

I purchased Flight Simulator 2020 and it worked. Then I received a message to update. The update stopped and I received this message. (Give Us a Minute) we're updating Microsoft Flight Simulator should be ready to use again shortly. That shortly has expanded
into days. I don't know what to do
