Hi, since 2 or 3 of the latest driver updates, my game crashes/freezes when I try to stream on discord. It doesn't matter if I directly hook the game or just stream my desktop. It crashes everytime I load something... like starting the game, press play in the main menu etc.
Sometimes I'm lucky with streaming my desktop first and then start the game.

Eventviewer shows me this:

Please note that other programs have their own overlays and may interfere with the NVIDIA overlays and game filters. These programs include but not limited to:

  • Xbox Game Bar
  • AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition
  • Intel Arc Graphics
  • MSI Afterburner/Rivatuner Statistics Server
  • Razer Cortex
  • OMEN Command Center
  • Steam
  • EA App
  • GOG Galaxy
  • Ubisoft
  • Discord
  • any app that draws itself on top of the desktop/game window

Please check the settings app for each individual app to disable the third-party overlays if you have any issues with NVIDIA overlays.

Xbox Game Bar (Default Shortcut: Windows logo key + G) :
Do not disable the Game Bar on Windows 11 as it is part of the OS and other software depends on the Game Bar.

On Windows 10, Open Settings > Gaming > Turn off the toggle that starts with Enable Xbox Game Bar.

**AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition (Default Shortcut: Alt + R): ** [Note that this default keybind is shared with NVIDIA's default]
Navigate to Preferences (cogwheel icon) > General > Toggle off "Show Overlay"

**Discord (Default Shortcut: Shift + ` (backtick)): **
Open User Settings (Cogwheel at bottom left next to profile name) > Game Overlay and toggle off the "Enable Overlay" & “Enable Legacy Overlay” option.

**RTSS/MSI Afterburner (Check RTSS/MSI Afterburner for Keybinds/Shortcut as this is set by user): **
Uninstall RTSS from Control Panel/Settings.

**Steam (Default Shortcut: Shift + Tab): **
Go to Steam > Settings > In game > Disable “Enable The Steam Overlay While In-Game”. You can also do this on an per-app basis by right clicking your game > select Properties > Disable “Enable The Steam Overlay While In-Game”

**Intel Arc Control (Default Shortcut: Alt + O): **
Go to Settings > App Preferences > Window Mode is set to “Disable Overlays”

**Razer Cortex (Default Shortcut: Shift + ' (apostrophe)): **
Please uninstall Razer Cortex as it is currently incompatible with Xbox Game Bar on Windows 11. An update will be released in the future to resolve these incompatibility issues.
