How to Disable the Discord Overlay

Last updated 1 min read

Discord's overlay shows who's talking while you play. It hooks into the game the same way the cheat menu does, and the two can conflict.

  1. Open Discord and click User Settings (the gear next to your name).

  2. Scroll to Activity Settings and open Game Overlay.

  3. Set Enable in-game overlay to Off.

    Enable in-game overlay switch in Discord's Game Overlay settings

Tip

You can keep Discord open for voice chat. Only the overlay has to be off.

Disable the other overlays too

Also turn off Steam, the Xbox Game Bar and your graphics overlay (NVIDIA or AMD). For everything else, see the troubleshooting guide.
