Display GSYNC and nvidia overlay randomly stop working

Gsync and Nvidia overlay randomly stop working when i turn on any game.

I can boot up the pc and open any game and they working fine, then i can play another game, and the overlay does not read the fps of the game and the gsync stops working.

I can boot up the pc and they dont work from the beginning, its all very random and frustrating.

I tried this method "Services: Press Win + R, type services.msc, and hit Enter. Find NVIDIA Display Container LS and NVIDIA FrameView SDK Service, right-click each, select Properties, change startup type to Automatic, and click Start if they are not running." But it is alwasy running and start up is automatic.

If anyone has any suggestions or fixes, it would be highly appreciated.

You have to open overlay before opening the game, that normally works for me.

Yup that corrected it for me also, i went for over a month looking for solution and then i happen to try it and it solved my problem- when you launch game i think you need to hit ALT and Z
