  • I have the same issue, but luckily enough of the UI is visible for me to select "windowed mode," which fixes it. I've attached my DxDiag, hopefully that will be helpful.

  • I have this issue when I use my laptop connected to the TV. If I open and close again the laptop, it fixes itself... but it is annoying, indeed 🙂

  • I had the same issue. My personal guess is that it was caused by me having a HighDPI screen (17" with 4k) with windows scaling everything up.

    By switching to windowed mode I could tell the game to become useable / interactable. Then switching there to my native screen resolution and finally everything looks as intended now.
