Discord是游戏玩家中最受欢迎的聊天程序。用户可以为自己喜欢的游戏、公会或一群朋友创建自己的服务器。(create their own servers)无论出于何种原因，Discord都会显示您何时在线、您正在玩什么游戏等等。
它拥有语音和文本聊天服务器，允许游戏玩家在玩自己喜欢的游戏时聊天。它还包括一个游戏内覆盖，可以通过在游戏中点击键盘快捷键来激活。叠加层可以轻松响应消息、切换聊天服务器等。
如果Discord覆盖不起作用，您可以尝试以下几种不同的修复方法。
确保覆盖已启用
Discord覆盖应默认启用，但有时用户禁用它或故障导致覆盖关闭(glitch causes the overlay to shut off)。您应该采取的第一步是确保覆盖已激活。
单击Discord中的(Discord)用户(User) 设置(Settings)图标。它位于您的用户名右侧，在麦克风和耳机图标旁边。当它打开时，向下滚动并单击叠加(Overlay)并确保启用游戏内叠加(Enable in-game overlay)滑块已打开。
如果启用，滑块将为绿色并带有复选标记。如果不是，它将是带有“X”的灰色。
确保启用特定游戏
第一步是为所有Discord启用覆盖(enabling the overlay)。如果这不能解决您的问题，请确保您要玩的特定游戏启用了覆盖。转到User Settings > Game Activity并查看列表。
任何启用了覆盖的游戏都会在其旁边显示一个灰色监视器。您也可以将光标悬停在游戏上，它会显示覆盖：打开(Overlay: On)或覆盖：关闭。(Overlay: Off.)显示器也会有一个红色的“X”穿过它。您可以单击监视器以快速启用该特定标题的覆盖。
以管理员身份运行 Discord
通过以管理员身份打开和运行程序，可以防止许多潜在的故障，例如Discord覆盖不起作用。这告诉您的系统该程序可以信任并且没有恶意软件和病毒。
右键单击 Discord 并选择Run as administrator。这将正常打开程序，但会赋予它完全的管理权限并绕过任何阻止它的防火墙或安全程序。
检查您的显示比例
您可以在Windows设置中自定义显示比例。虽然这可以使文本和图标更容易被发现(make text and icons easier to spot)，但它也可以隐藏Discord覆盖。有时只需 5% 的差异即可隐藏显示。好消息是您只需单击几下即可更改比例。
打开Settings > Display 并查找比例和布局(Scale and layout )子标题。查找“更改(Change)文本、应用程序和其他项目的大小”选项，然后单击下拉框。将其设置回 100%。在再次测试Discord(Discord)之前，给系统一点时间来重新扩展。
完全关闭不和谐
Discord用户中的一个常见错误是，即使其他所有内容都已关闭，应用程序的一部分仍可能在后台运行。如果是这种情况，当您尝试启动Discord(Discord might not open)时，它可能不会打开，更不用说运行覆盖了。
打开您的任务管理器(Task Manager)并结束所有涉及Discord的进程。根据您的操作系统，您可能会看到多个名为Discord（32 位）(Discord (32 bit))或Discord（64 位）的进程。(Discord (64 bit) )结束这些进程，然后重新启动Discord。
重启你的电脑
这是一个如此简单的步骤，但却经常被忽视。重新启动 PC 可以解决几乎所有程序的大部分问题。如果完全关闭Discord不起作用，请在执行任何其他步骤之前重新启动您的 PC。
确保没有其他覆盖处于活动状态
Discord不是唯一使用覆盖的程序。OBS 等流媒体软件和(Streaming software like OBS)Xbox Game Bar等工具都会生成在游戏中使用的叠加层，有时这些程序会干扰Discord的叠加层。关闭任何可能干扰(Shut)Discord的第三方软件。
完成后，重新启动Discord，然后再次测试Discord覆盖以确认它是否正常工作。
禁用硬件加速
硬件(Hardware)加速是许多应用程序中的一项功能，它使用CPU和GPU的资源来确保程序运行更流畅。这在可以使用一些额外帮助的较弱系统上特别有用。但是，硬件加速有时会干扰 Discord 的覆盖。
要禁用硬件加速，请打开Discord并导航到Settings > Appearance ，然后向下滚动到硬件加速。(Hardware Acceleration.)确保选项旁边的切换开关已关闭。这不仅可以纠正覆盖问题，而且还可以在Discord在后台播放时帮助游戏更流畅地运行。
重新安装不和谐
如果一切都失败了，并且Discord覆盖仍然无法正常工作，您可以卸载并重新安装Discord。这一步几乎没有风险。与您的帐户、服务器等相关的信息(Information)存储在服务器端，因此即使您擦除 PC，您也可以通过重新登录重新获得对该信息的访问权限。
打开控制面板(Control Panel )>卸载程序( Uninstall a program )并滚动，直到在列表中找到Discord。单击(Click) Discord，然后右键单击并选择卸载。(Uninstall.)从计算机中完全删除Discord后，您可以通过访问Discord 的网站重新安装该程序。(Discord’s website.)
(Download)从该站点下载最新版本的Discord 。如果您仍有下载，请不要依赖以前的下载。重新安装Discord并重新登录后，测试覆盖。
Discord是一项值得拥有的优质服务，无论您是想与朋友一起玩还是只是想找一个与您有相同兴趣的人社区(community of people with the same interests as yourself)。有用于烹饪、复古游戏等的不同Discord服务器。(Discord)如果您想确保即使在游戏过程中也能保持对话的一部分，请尝试这些不同的技巧以确保Discord覆盖工作。
Discord Overlay Not Working? 9 Ways to Fix
Discord is thе most popular chat program among gamers. Users can create their own servers for their favorite games, for their guild, or just for a group of friends. Whatever the reason, Discord shows when you’re online, what game you’re playing, and much more.
It holds both voice and text chat servers that allow gamers to chat while playing their favorite titles. It also includes an in-game overlay that can be activated by hitting the keyboard shortcut while in-game. The overlay makes it easy to respond to messages, switch chat servers, and more.
If the Discord overlay is not working, here are several different fixes you can try.
Make Sure the Overlay is Enabled
The Discord overlay should be enabled by default, but sometimes users disable it or a glitch causes the overlay to shut off. The first step you should take is to ensure the overlay is activated.
Click the User Settings icon in Discord. This is found to the right of your username, beside the microphone and headphone icons. When this opens, scroll down and click Overlay and ensure the Enable in-game overlay slider is turned on.
If enabled, the slider will be green with a check mark. If not, it will be grey with an “X”.
Ensure Specific Games Are Enabled
The first step is enabling the overlay for all of Discord. If that doesn’t solve your problem, make sure the specific game you want to play has the overlay enabled. Go to User Settings > Game Activity and look at the list.
Any game that has the overlay enabled will show a grey monitor beside it. You can also hover your cursor over a game and it will show Overlay: On or Overlay: Off. The monitor will have a red “X” through it as well. You can click the monitor to quickly enable the overlay for that specific title.
Run Discord as Administrator
Many potential glitches like Discord overlay not working can be prevented by opening and running a program as the administrator. This tells your system the program can be trusted and is free of malware and viruses.
Right-click Discord and choose Run as administrator. This will open the program as normal, but will give it full administrative privileges and circumvent any firewalls or security programs that block it.
Check Your Display Scaling
You can customize the scale of your display from within Windows settings. While this can make text and icons easier to spot, it can also hide the Discord overlay. Sometimes a difference as small as 5% is all it takes to hide the display. The good news is that you can change the scale with just a few clicks.
Open Settings > Display and look for the Scale and layout subheading. Look for the option to “Change the size of texts, apps, and other items” and click the drop-down box. Set it back to 100%. Give the system a moment to re-scale before testing Discord once more.
Fully Close Out Discord
A common error among Discord users is that part of the application may remain running in the background even after everything else has closed. If this is the case, Discord might not open when you try to start it, much less run the overlay.
Open your Task Manager and end every process involving Discord. You will likely see multiple processes named Discord (32 bit) or Discord (64 bit) depending on your operating system. End these processes and then re-start Discord.
Restart Your Computer
It’s such a simple step, but one that is often overlooked. Restarting your PC can resolve a majority of issues with almost any program. If fully shutting down Discord doesn’t work, restart your PC before taking any other steps.
Ensure No Other Overlay is Active
Discord isn’t the only program that uses an overlay. Streaming software like OBS and tools like the Xbox Game Bar both generate overlays for use in-game, and sometimes these programs can interfere with Discord’s overlay. Shut down any third-party software that might interfere with Discord.
Once you do, restart Discord and then test the Discord overlay once more to confirm if it’s working.
Disable Hardware Acceleration
Hardware acceleration is a feature in many applications that uses resources from the CPU and GPU to ensure the program runs more smoothly. This is particularly useful on weaker systems that can use a bit of additional help. However, hardware acceleration can sometimes interfere with Discord’s overlay.
To disable hardware acceleration, open Discord and navigate to Settings > Appearance and then scroll down to Hardware Acceleration. Ensure the toggle beside the option is turned off. Not only can this correct problems with the overlay, but it can also help games run more smoothly while Discord plays in the background.
Re-Install Discord
If all else fails, and the Discord overlay is still not working, you can uninstall and reinstall Discord. There is little at risk in this step. Information related to your account, servers, and more is stored server-side, so even if you wipe your PC, you can regain access to that information by logging back in.
Open Control Panel > Uninstall a program and scroll until you find Discord on the list. Click Discord, then right-click and choose Uninstall. After you have completely removed Discord from your machine, you can reinstall the program by going to Discord’s website.
Download the latest version of Discord from the site. Don’t rely on a previous download if you still have one. After you have reinstalled Discord and logged back in, test the overlay.
Discord is a great service that’s worth having, whether you want to play with friends or just find a community of people with the same interests as yourself. There are different Discord servers for cooking, retro gaming, and so much more. If you want to make sure you can remain part of the conversation even in the midst of gameplay, try these different tips to ensure the Discord overlay works.
