If you play in an older version like 1.8 and then change to 1.15.2/ 1.16 pre2 Auto Jump is always going to be activated even if you disabled it before playing in an older version.

The controls reset because the key binding parameters are way different between versions and each version treats the other's settings as incompatible, setting them to default. The best thing you can do is using launcher profiles with separate directories for alternate versions, therefore, each instance will have its own options.txt
and won't conflict.
Are you running it in the same installation?
