Everything in BF1 is unclickable after Creators Update -> unplayable

Product: Battlefield 1 (with premium pass)
Platform:PC

System specs:

Intel i5 2500K

AMD Radeon HD 6950 (Catalyst control center 2015.1104.1643.30033, Driver version 15.201.1151.1008-151104a-296217E, newest for this card)

8gb RAM

Win10 Pro with creators update


Summarize your bug:

After installing the Creator's Update for Win10 Battlefield 1 start normally but I can't interact with anything in the main menu. There is no change of the buttons or any sound when hovering the cursor above the buttons. Music plays normally in the background. When I Alt+tab out of the game I can't get back in, I only hear the background sound. Only way to exit is terminate task via task manager.

I can join friends ingame from the origin program from the desktop. Then the game starts like always and joins the server yet again I can't do anything from then on.

Before the creators update the game worked fine.

Steps done to resolve the problem:

- Disabled Origin overlay in game (was already disabled)

- Disabled Game Mode in windows settings

- Tried to run the game with various compatibility options

    Try plugging in a wired controller and launch the game, for me it works when doing so. I can use my mouse normally  and click on everything as long as I don't touch the controller and have it plugged in.

    To be quite honest, this is ridiculous that we need to purchase a separate controller and plug it in to our PC's, and have it just sit there, so that we can play the game.

    What is EA doing to address this bug?  A patch for BF1 that resolves this weird issue is clearly needed.

    Yep it's ridiculous!

    And you don't even need the controller. For me it's enough to just plug in the wireless USB connector so windows thinks a controller is plugged in. No need to turn it on. So maybe emulating a controller might also work but i haven't tried that.

    David,

    This bug has persisted several months now.  The game remains unplayable for those of us w/ this bug since the Creators update dropped.  Does EA have anyone working on this?  A BF1 update addressing this issue is needed.  Please advise.  Thank you.
