AMD In-Game overlay not working

Basically the Adrenaline in-game overlay and the relive features have stopped working. The overlay seems to be working just fine when I'm just on the desktop, but when i try to open it in game via the hotkeys (alt + Z or alt + R) it does not appear at all. I've tried factory resetting the settings of AMD Adrenaline but nothing seems to work.

I did find out that if i DDU and reinstall the Amd drivers with Adrenaline, the in game overlay will work normally until i restart or shut down the computer. In the next boot the problem appears again. I have disabled ALL the background programs in order to check if something caused it but the problem still persists.

This happens on Full screen and borderless modes.

Note: Adrenaline detects the games, the Adrenaline pop up appears every time i launch the game.

Any assistance is appreciated cause its driving me crazy.

Check the following:

1. Settings > Hotkeys:

2. Settings > Preferences

Test it using the following toggle. It should show up when you enable it even if you are not in a game if the game detection is off.

Thanks for the response.

 

As I've mentioned the overlay works perfectly fine on desktop, with that being said the above settings are both enabled.

I tried enabling Metrics overlay while in game but it does not work. if i try to enable it via the hotkey while in game, nothing happens and on Adrenaline, the settings seems to be enabled.

 

As expected it will work just fine on desktop.

So if you have the overlay displayed on desktop and start a game, it will disappear?

Game detection is disabled or enabled?

Exactly. It disappears whenever I launch or go back to a game. 

Game detection is enabled.

Today I encountered this issue too. When I turn on a game, in the top right I see the overlay showing up for a brief moment. However clicking ALT+R or CTRL+SHIFT+O does not work. Although It does work on desktop. I am just hoping they can get this fixed in the next version.
