Cannot Enable/Disable In-Game Overlay: Setting Greyed Out

I am a Chinese player and I have found that I am unable to turn off or enable the in-game interface. Others can freely turn it on or off, but I can only force it on.

CM edit; Edited title for clarity.

    I was playing Battlefront 2 when this was causing this issue and i couldn't turn it off, so i closed the game and it let me disable the overlay.
    If anyone can't disable it, you might have to leave the game first before you try disabling the overlay. Worked for me.

  • I cannot disable my in-game overlay pls helppp

    I had the same issue. I found out that you have to be 'online' in order to disable it. Then you can switch to invisible afterwards. 

    At least that's what worked for me.

    Hey Axelirant​, I merged your post with an existing thread about this. Could you please also share an EA app Error Reporter ID with us here in the thread?

    Posting this a second time because first post appears to have been removed: Link 

    Just reinstalled Windows 11 Pro (factory ISO), installed the EA app from Official website and the option to turn off the in-game overlay is greyed out

    • No game is running.
    • Uninstalled/re-installed App several times. 

    Please fix.
