My orgin overlay doesn't work how do I fix it for Apex Legends?

Go into your Origin library and right click on Apex Legends / properties. Make sure that Origin in game is enabled. 

You could try deleting the Origin cache

Run Origin as administrator

Close down other programs running in the background that may use an overlay such as Steam.

Follow the cleanup section of my guide: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Networking-Guide-Opening-the-taps-and-cleaning-up/td-p/7526142

There is two overlay options in two different places.

check that they are both enabled:

right click apex and open game properties.

origin drop menu > application settings.

save changes and test game.

if the settings are already the same try run origin launcher in admin mode.

You could reinstall Origin.

Thats fine just wanted to be sure you didnt miss one of the two locations.

Now navigate here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin

Right click Origin.exe and open properties.

toggle the fullscreen optimisations here:

then apply and test.
