ESP not showing in game

ESP is not showing in game even though Updates is green and the menu toggles are on.

Player ESP boxes in a Fortnite match on Windows PC

Dropped into a match and ESP is not showing in game at all. Overlay loads, toggles are on, Updates is green. Fresh Windows 11 install.

Menu opens fine. In game I get nothing on players. What should I check before I bother Support?

    Classic first-launch thing. Overlay drawing but no boxes usually means Cloud DMA is not fully up. Did you enable HVCI, TPM and Secure Boot in BIOS?

    Windows shows Core Isolation on. I have not actually gone into BIOS though.

  3. reload_only

    That is the trap - Windows can say on while firmware is off. Turn it on in BIOS itself, then reboot.

    Empty ESP on a green status is almost always Cloud DMA requirements. Enable HVCI, TPM and Secure Boot in BIOS, reboot, then launch in the order on the Setup page. Cloud DMA is required for the full feature set.

    Also kill other overlays while you test - GeForce, Discord, NVIDIA. They can fight the draw on first run.

    Secure Boot was off in BIOS even though Windows said on. Enabled it, rebooted, boxes are drawing now.

    Every time. Glad it was that and not a patch.

    For future - if ESP ever goes empty after a game update, check Updates first. Empty boxes on a yellow day is the build, not your setup.

    Right. If it is green and still empty after the BIOS steps, open a Support ticket with your order ID and we will walk it live.
