This happens because that game locks on to the first device it sees plugged in that it recognizes as a control device. The most common cause of it therefore is having a gamepad plugged into your PC.

Just Google "RE7 won't recognize mouse/keyboard inputs", and you will see links on Steam discussing this, and a video showing how to get it working if you have a gamepad plugged in.

I really don't think reinstalling it would have been necessary given the fixes I've read, but at least you got it running.
