    as I have mentioned before, I already formatted the PC twice for this, in vain. I do have the beta updates enabled though, I'm going to try to Disable it.

    What I'd like to know is, is there any command line arguments I can add to force the activation of the overlay? I forgot to say that the overlay option is enabled in the game properties as I mentioned in the first post.
