Overlay

So I recently switched my AMD Radeon RX 580 graphics card for a Nividia 3070. The switch went fine and Everything was working perfectly. Only recently has the Radeon overlay been popping up on my screen while I'm playing games. I have checked for any Radeon Services running but nothing is running. I need help turning it off.

Use AMD Cleanup Utility, or DDU to remove all AMD drivers. You upgraded to a 3070 so AMD drivers should be completely removed to avoid software conflicts.

I installed and ran the AMD Cleanup Utility, the problem still persists. Anything else I can do

You could use DDU to just completely remove all AMD display drivers and software. It should be gone. You should not need AMD software with an Nvidia GPU.

Have you pressed ctrl+shift+o? What hardware are you running?

Did DDU work?
