Steam overlay issues

I purchased on steam and every time i launch the game tells me i need to enable steam overlay to play the game. ive made sure its enabled globally and specifically for the game and it still dosent work. Ive also disabled overlays for all the other programs that have them incase it was a conflicting issue. ive went through all the normal steps like verify, reinstall and restart the pc with no luck. A fix or solution would be greatly appreciated.
