Geforce Overlay and Battlefield 2042
Anyone else recently having the problem that when opening the GeForce Experience Overlay (alt+z) in Battlefield 2042 the mouse does not work on the overlay?

Community ManagerDisabling GeForce Experience (temporarily or not) is a legitimate troubleshooting step that has helped in the past.
Perform a clean boot before starting the game: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 or http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-clean-boot-your-pc/
Thanks.
@EA_Barry That is no solution - it’s like: So it hurts when you do so? Stop doing so! Another solution could be to uninstall battlefield or to throw the pc out of the window.
So there might be a interference with GeForce experience and Battlefield

@SyroneJep, i installed GeForce_Experience_v3.25.1.27
And indeed , mouse does not operate when ya press ALT+Z.If ya move mouse , then ya move in game and not at overlay !
Only when ya minimize game, then GeForce_Experience_v3.25.1.27 can be controlled. It seems there is indeed some issue, but question is , is this cause of bf2042 or got GeForce_Experience_v3.25.1.27 an issues with activating mouse during overlay? cause it isnt a real overlay some how , without mouse pointer.
After ya press alt+z , ya can see mouse pointer in the middle of the crosshair/screen.- @Rokebo73 Than you so much for your answer. In other applications or games Geforce Experience is working for me.
@Syronei even tried the experimental beta version 3.26.031 , also then overlay doesnt work.
But after install from this beta product , all did go wrong.
For some reason i could not fully delete/uninstall geforce experience anymore. Multiple reboots, in safe mode , and even with GEEK and REVO UNINSTALLER the GFE option in the lower right side stayed visible. When i opened it i got an error 0x003 , something went wrong reboot ect ect.
I had to manualy clean registry from the GFE stuff, hahahaa.
And yes for sure, GFE isnt ok , and something with GFE and BF2042 together there is also something wrong !
Im now thinking about a new clean install windows. During manual cleaning from reghistry i even did see registry keys from my older GPU !!!!
Even after i used DDU in the past !!!!
I would not recommend to use GFE , for now together with BF2042 (or you need to use the shortcuts in GFE to control it).
