Check that the in game settings for keyboard assignment are set correctly.

remap the tab key's use to a different button then test it. if it works, it's your keyboard, if it still doesn't then there's a problem.

If you are using the Blackwidow from Razer, I suggest turning on the Gaming function (Fn+F10) then turning it off. As this fixed it for my game.

Figured it out. I'm a translator, and I sometimes switch English and Turkish keyboard settings. The setting was somehow was changed to English, and when I switched back to Turkish, the tab key started to work.

Guys, I can't believe this worked. I have a SPERG mod installed. I used the enchanting table to craft (not enchant) something I noticed my tab and q weren't working. Tried remapping and reloading, both didn't work.
Went back to the enchanting table and selected enchant this time, and everything is back to normal. Weird

Thank you very much. Saved my ass 6 years later. Felt like a baffoon as I could not figure out the reason in my case.
