P13 Coreliquid and Game Focus Issue

[jasonrjorda162202f8]

So I've run into a problem specifically with using the P13 and the recent updates. Whenever I have EZ Display installed and running the basic CPU and GPU temp info screens. Games, specifically ARC Raiders will lose focus in game when I try to aim a weapon, The mouse does not appear to be contained in the game window. Ive tried so many fixes but today I noticed for some reason EZ display wasn't even running, and as soon as I enabled it the issue began in Arc Raiders, after uninstalling the EZ App from MSI Center now Arc Raiders works correctly now. This issue I believe only started after the recent updates.

Have you tried running the game in borderless windowed mode?

 

[mehdi.ziadi.215a602e3]

Yes, I've tried all the modes and so much more, it the latest update to MSI EZ display thats the problem.

Honestly, that really does sound like the recent MSI Center or EZ Display update broke something. The fact that the issue instantly comes back when EZ Display is running and disappears when it’s uninstalled makes it pretty clear it’s interfering with the game’s mouse capture or focus.
My guess is EZ Display is acting like an overlay or constantly polling in the background, and ARC Raiders doesn’t handle losing focus well when aiming. Some games are weirdly sensitive to any background app trying to hook display or mouse input. I wouldn’t be surprised if this affects other fullscreen games too, not just ARC Raiders.
If I were you, I’d leave EZ Display off for now until MSI patches it. You could also test if it happens in borderless windowed instead of exclusive fullscreen just to confirm it’s a focus issue. Did you notice if it happens only when aiming or also when opening menus or moving the mouse to screen edges? And have you tried older MSI Center versions to see if rolling back fixes it? That might help narrow down which update caused it.
