Try using a third-party uninstaller such as Revo Uninstaller to remove the software. If that doesn't work, you may need to manually delete the files and registry entries associated with the software.

To turn off the program "ssOverlay" on Windows, you can follow these steps:

  1. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the Task Manager.
  2. In the "Processes" tab, find the "ssOverlay" process.
  3. Right-click on the process and select "End Task" or "End Process".
  4. Confirm the action if prompted.
    Once the program is turned off, your icons/menus should become visible again.

How do I get different colors and shades on my PC? I tried SS Overlay and it was only red. The program did not seem to give any option to remove the overlay at all or to change colors. There seems to be no documentation with it. I had to uninstall it and re-start my computer to remove the overlay from my screen that was the wrong color. It was inconvenient as I lost some work. Can you help with these problems? Many thanks, Hazel.

Answer by Sean Hill

The software appears to be pretty limited when it comes to configuration and features. From what I am seeing, ssOverlay features 2 options, one to choose the level and one to choose the color. There is nothing else regarding advanced customization, therefore it's impossible to say how to obtain different colors and shades.


I've searched on other websites as well, but the same options are available and no tutorial or user guide regarding the way you can customize colors or shades.

I'd like to use it with multiple displays. My problem is that I can only apply filter on the main system screen. How can I only apply filters with Ssoverlay on the second screen?

Answer by Leonard Moore

The product can be used with multiple displays. However, there isn't any option that can aid you in this process. To apply the filter on the second display, just drag the application's window on it. You should be able to do this by selecting the window and press the Ctrl + C key combination and move the mouse to the second screen. This will transfer the window to the second screen, thus applying filters to it.

You can make the font darker and back to black by adjusting the font color settings in the program.
