UI Issue

Post by Coolio » Tue Dec 12, 2017 9:59 pm

Whenever i come out of the sim back into the UI, none of the buttons on the screen work. I have to cntl alt del and go into task manager to kill the app and reopen it for any buttons to work.

This didn't happen when I had 2 GPUs installed. But since I got rid of one, this issue started.

Any ideas? Maybe an obvious setting?

Cheers,

Coolio.

I have exactly the same issue. It seems to have occurred for me after the last Windows 10 update.

Don’t get me started on that update. Took out all my controls and had to setup everything from scratch. Even took out links to my bloody documents folder :evil:

Same here. I use my OneDrive for my My Documents folder and it ignored that completely until I sorted it.

Will a reinstall fix my issue perhaps?

Coolio. A few people (including me) have a similar problem with 4.5.

In Video options change full screen to Pseudo (keep resolution the same, or lower than your desktop) and see if that helps.

Yup, Pseudo mode will sort it out if you run the sim at your monitors native res.
I run 1 res down and pseudo reverts to a window.

The problem was installed by Bill Gates with the Windows 10 Fall Update.
If you have Win10 Pro you can revert back to v1703 and defer the Fall Update for a year, which is what I did.
Its just bloatware in there, security updates and the like still come down.

Just another reason why I COMPLETELY disabled any auto updates ...
