Discussion EDMC/EDR Overlay not working

[DonnieDarko]

Hi, Hope somebody can help. I have recently installed EDMC & EDR but the overlay does not work at all. I've checked through all the help options and ran it as administrator (Note: I also run ED as admin too).
I have 2 monitors & it doesn't appear on either screens. I've tried it on full screen, Borderless & Windowed, The EDR overlay is set to multiple screens and I've tried it on just enabled but it doesn't seem to work at all.

Thanks in advance

I have also had some intermittant issues with EDR recently.

I have learnt that the EDMC Overlay which is bundled with EDR can sometimes conflict with the standalone EDMC Overlay if you have a separate install of that in the plugin folder.

You might wish to present your query on the EDMC-Plugins channel within EDCD discord.

I also seem to recall I needed to open the EDMCOverlay folder and run the EDMCOverlay.exe file once manually so you get the Windows Warning message which you 'ok' and Windows won't ask again.
