Hi The_Flash,

Thank you for posting in the communities!

I was able to review the issue you're having; you can try following these steps to try and resolve this issue:

Get the latest Windows* update:

Open the Windows Start Menu (button with the Windows logo).
Then click Settings (button with the gear symbol).
Next, click Update & Security.
Then select Install Now or Check for Updates.
Next, wait for the update to be installed.
Finally, click Restart now after the update is installed.

Perform Graphics Driver Clean Installation:

Download and install the latest Intel® Arc™ & Iris® Xe Graphics driver.
Follow the Execute a Clean Installation During Driver Installation steps from the article Clean Installation of Intel® Graphics Drivers in Windows*.

Source link: Intel® Arc™ Control Hotkey and In-Game Overlay Hotkey...

Is the overlay working fine before?
What are the changes on the system before you encounter the issue?

Let me know if there will be changes on the issue after trying the troubleshooting.

@Earl_Inte I'm experiencing the same issue on my end. I followed the steps you provided, but the problem still persists. It seems to have started after the latest Intel driver update (32.0.101.6557). However, when I install the previous driver (32.0.101.6314), the overlay does show up.
