apex legends disables use of my mouse

I dont even know how this problem starts or how it could possible be caused, but sometimes when I die in apex legends, I get auto tabbed out of the game and my mouse gets completely disabled, its happened multiple times and I have twitch VODS to prove it, I cant click anything outside of the program that I get tabbed out to, if I tab back into apex by pressing alt+tab on my keyboard, I get tabbed out again by pressing any button or click on the screen, I dont understand how this is happening and nothing short of a complete shutdown of my pc fixes it, this is really pissing me off.

    Hey @CallM3Rio do you have any overlays running on your system, this includes Origin In-Game and Discord?

    If so can you go ahead and disable them all and then load up the game again to test if the issue continues.

  • I also cannot replicate the issue to test it seeing as I have no idea what causes the problem in the first place

    Issues like this are almost always system-related @CallM3Rio, as such it's a case that you generally need to try and pinpoint the software, hardware or setting that is causing the issue.

    It's no harm trying on a new Windows admin account with nothing but the game installed or running to see if you have the same issue.
