Same thing with not being able to uninstall Edge, and the silly 'edge is a better browser' message that appears when you try to switch.

Fromreddit, it worked for me.

To resolve this you can also use the powershell to edit the registry like this:

reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR /f /t REG_DWORD /v "AppCaptureEnabled" /d 0 reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore /f /t REG_DWORD /v "GameDVR_Enabled" /d 0

This disables the game recorder software which seems to still think that the gaming overlay is still present.
This was the solution to my problems, thank you Sir, have a good one :)
